Traffic nightmare, car burst into flames
Commuters in Tarrant County are facing a traffic nightmare today after a portion of Interstate 30 had to be shut down due to an incident involving an overhead sign. The sign fell across the road following a car crash near Linkcrest Drive, close to the border between Tarrant County and Parker County.
According to reports, the car involved in the accident was traveling at a high rate of speed when it collided with the sign support. The impact caused the vehicle to burst into flames, creating a dangerous situation for both drivers and emergency responders. The car stopped, lodged against the fallen sign support. It is unclear at this time what led to this devastating crash or whether there were any other vehicles involved.
As authorities work diligently to clear up this chaotic scene, all lanes on I-30 are being redirected onto I-20. This temporary measure aims to ensure public safety while crews clean up debris and assess any potential damage caused by the fallen sign.
MedStar has confirmed that one person has been transported from the scene; however, no information regarding their condition or identity has been released thus far. Authorities have yet to provide further details about possible injuries sustained by those involved or any contributing factors leading up to this incident.
