Two women are dead after a crash involving a semitruck and seven vehicles on Interstate 70 near the Business Loop 70 exit.
The crash occurred at about 2:30 p.m. Monday after a semitruck traveling west hit a vehicle also going west, according to a Columbia Police Department Facebook post. The semitruck swerved and crossed the median strip into the I-70 eastbound lanes.
The semitruck hit a U-Haul truck head-on with two women inside. One died at the scene and the other died at a local hospital, the police department said.
Seven vehicles were involved in the crash, but the department does not know how many people were injured or the extent of their injuries.
Both eastbound lanes and the westbound passing lane were closed for at least an hour, but all lanes have since reopened.
