CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - A crash involving nearly two dozen vehicles had injured several people and closed a bridge for roughly three hours in South Carolina.
News outlets report Charleston County dispatchers say the collision was reported during rush hour Monday morning. Authorities had responded to the wreck near a bridge going into the downtown Charleston area.
The county sheriff’s office tweeted that the bridge is open after both directions of it had been closed. Sheriff’s Capt. Roger Antonio tells WCBD-TV a car that crossed into an opposing lane is believed to have initially caused the crash.
The sheriff’s office says the injuries ranged from moderate to fairly serious but none were life-threatening. Antonio says investigators are working to determine what exactly caused the collision and how many vehicles were involved.
