Northbound I-71 reopens at Lytle Tunnel after semi overturns, leaks fluids

CINCINNATI — Northbound I-71 has reopened at the Lytle Tunnel after an overturned semi-truck shut down the road for several hours.

Fire officials said the semi turned over and began leaking fluids at the Lytle Tunnel early Friday evening. The truck also dropped a large load of steel on the road. No one was trapped, but fire officials said they were still determining if there were any injuries.

All northbound lanes were closed from around 6:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. as officials removed the truck and investigated the scene.
