Interstate 79 Reopens After Multi-Vehicle Crash

December 13, 2024 9:47 am

A multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 79 Friday morning injured several people and closed the highway in both directions in Amwell Township for several hours, but both lanes were re-opened just after twelve-thirty. The accident happened just after eight o’clock between the Amity/Lone Pine and Laboratory exits. Authorities say a car traveling south crossed the median and went into the northbound lanes, striking another vehicle head-on.  A third vehicle was also involved and one person was ejected.  Four individuals were taken to area hospitals but there’s been no word on the extent of those injuries.  One person was also reportedly treated at the scene and another refused treatment.  (Photo:  WPXI)
