Weather-related problems on I-65

Indiana State Police at the Lafayette District reported a busy day Thursday, responding to more than 20 slide-offs and crashes on area interstates.

Two injuries resulted in those crashes.

One of the injuries occurred in White County and included five semitrailers and one car. Officers said traffic had slowed down due to a previous crash, when another semi failed to slow and ran into four other semis and one car.

Two semi drivers were taken to IU Health Arnett Hospital in Lafayette with injuries not believed to be life-threatening.

I-65 was closed for about three hours while cleanup was completed.

Troopers want to remind drivers to slow down and be cautious of traffic conditions. They said make sure to leave plenty of room between you and the vehicle in front of you and avoid driving too fast for the road conditions.
