TRAFFIC SNARLED FOR 2 HOURS DUE TO 3 VEHICLE ACCIDENT

US 62 WAS BLOCKED TUESDAY FOR TWO HOURS DUE TO A 3 VEHICLE NON INJURY ACCIDENT INVOLVING A TRACTOR TRAILER. EASTBOUND TRAFFIC WAS STOPPED BECAUSE OF A CAR TURNING LEFT INTO THE INFORMATION AGE PARK. A SEMI WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP FOR THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF HIM AND STRUCK 2 OTHER VEHICLES. ONE OF THE TRACTOR'S FUEL CELLS WAS RUPTURED SPILLING SEVERAL GALLONS OF DIESEL FUEL ONTO THE ROADWAY. CONCORD FIRE AND STATE HIGHWAY WERE CALLED TO ASSIST IN THE CLEAN UP OF THE FUEL.
