Traffic on eastbound I-44 just before West Bypass in Springfield is being diverted onto Chestnut Expressway Tuesday morning after a truck flipped over and caught fire.
Shane, who’s a local truck driver, tells KWTO News it’s a day cab with a fuel tanker, and it’s laying across the eastbound lanes of the interstate, completely burned.
The scene is being worked by authorities as an injury crash.
The westbound lanes of I-44 are open.
