Tractor

KINGSVILLE, Md. — A tractor-trailer overturned Thursday morning on I-95 near the Baltimore and Harford County line.

Pictures posted on social media by Joppa-Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company show the truck on its side over top a jersey wall, blocking both the north and southbound sides of the interstate.

Baltimore County Fire officials say multiple other vehicles were involved, and that six people were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Crews had to be called in to clean up diesel fuel that spilled from the truck. No hazardous cargo was on board at the time.

Main lanes in each direction of I-95 between Mountain Road and White Marsh Boulevard (exits 67-74) were closed for hours before reopening.

The cause of the collision is unclear.
