PLAINFIELD, Wis. (AP) - A dust storm caused a crash involving about two dozen vehicles on Interstate 39 in central Wisconsin on Sunday, the Wisconsin State Patrol said.

The patrol told WKOW-TV 26 vehicles were involved in the pileup on southbound I-39 near Plainfield. In addition, there were four separate crashes in the northbound lanes.

The patrol said several injuries were reported, but none are life-threatening.
