Meijer semitruck crashes into pond; two other vehicles crash on I-280

Emergency responders restricted access to I-280 Sunday morning after three vehicles were involved in an accident, one of which was a semitruck.

TOLEDO, Ohio — Crews from the Toledo Police Department, Toledo Fire and Rescue Department and the Ohio Department of Transportation were on scene of a three vehicle accident involving a semi shortly after 7 a.m. on Sunday, March 10.

When WTOL 11 arrived on scene, a Meijer semitruck was found to be sitting in a pond off the embankment of I-280 northbound near exit 11.

According to a Toledo police report, the truck broke its axle on an exit ramp, struck a concrete wall and came to rest in a ditch. 

A vehicle in the northbound lane of I-280 was seen crashed into the guardrail and another vehicle was seen crashed into the median of southbound I-280. 

The right two lanes had to be blocked off by TPD.

The number of people involved and condition of those involved with the incident are currently unknown.
