18-wheeler jackknifes, vehicle crash closes busy Durham intersection

An 18-wheeler is stalled after a crash at a busy Durham intersection on Tuesday afternoon.

The tractor-trailer appears to be stuck in the mud with its load crossing the entire road on East Geer Street near East Club Boulevard.

Police told WRAL a vehicle crash took traffic lights down around 2:15 p.m.

Shortly after that, a flat bed tractor-trailer ended up in a jackknife position with its wheels stuck in the mud just down the road.

There is no word on injuries. Delays and closures could last into the commute home for Durham drivers.
