Police in southeastern Tennessee say six people have been
killed in a nine-vehicle wreck on Interstate 75.
Chattanooga Police
Department spokesman Kyle Miller says the accident happened around 7:10 p.m.
Thursday on I-75 northbound near the suburb of Ooltewah.
He says investigators
will be working overnight to determine the cause of the crash.
Police believe more than
15 people were involved; the exact number is still being determined because
multiple groups were taken to local hospitals.
The identities of the
victims were not immediately released.
Northbound lanes of I-75
were shut down after the accident and traffic was redirected. Police say the
lanes will likely be closed into the early morning hours.
