NEW STANTON (AP) — Pennsylvania Turnpike officials say a crash has closed the toll road in western Pennsylvania.
Traffic is being detoured off the turnpike for 86 miles between New Stanton and Breezewood in both directions.
Officials say a truck overturned on the eastbound side of the road near mile marker 138 and that both eastbound lanes and one westbound lane are blocked by the wreckage.
Hazardous materials crews are cleaning up oil and fuel leaking from the truck.
It wasn't immediately clear how long the lanes will be closed. The crash was reported about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday.
