WEST HARRISON, Ind. — All lanes of I-74 in Dearborn County are re-open roughly three hours after they shut down for a crash involving a semi truck, according to Indiana State Police.

The highway closed at around 5:30 p.m. Monday evening and reopened around 8:30 p.m.

INDOT said the crash was on the highway between IN-1 and Longnecker Road, roughly four miles east of Saint Leon.

A semi truck appeared to be jackknifed on top of a concrete barrier on the highway. ISP spokesperson Sgt. Stephen Wheeles tweeted that all lanes of I-74 were closed "due to vehicles and concrete barriers blocking the lanes."

Wheeles said no one was seriously hurt in the crash.
