Several hospitalized after multi-vehicle truck accident on Stemmons Fwy

DALLAS, TX – Several people were hospitalized on Wednesday following a multi-vehicle collision on the Stemmons Freeway that involved an overturned semi truck.

WFAA reports that the crash happened near Royal Lane at about 2:30 p.m. on July 8.

The crash closed the highway’s northbound lanes for some time afterward. Crews had to clean up about 30 gallons of diesel that spilled onto the roadway.
