Tiffany Mitchell said the crash displaced a family of four, although none were injured. It also caused an outage of multiple street lights, and police said the area was “a widespread scene.”
“It was a mess. It was a pretty big, crazy scene. Covered a lot of area,” Mitchell said.
Mitchell said police are investigating whether intoxication was a factor in the cause of the crash.
Police said they would update the public when the road reopened, which Mitchell
estimated to be around 10 a.m. Sunday, but police had not issued an update as of noon.
