Philadelphia, PA (May 5, 2022) – A serious collision with injuries happened on the night of Thursday, May 5, on a highway in Philadelphia.
According to Philadelphia Police, the accident happened around 10:21 p.m. in the northbound lanes of I-95 around the area of the Vine Expressway. Though the exact circumstances leading up to the accident have not been released, it is believed that two vehicles collided with each other. This caused one of the vehicles to roll over completely, which led to extensive damages.
Several responders, including local Philadelphia fire crews and medics, were called to the scene to help those in need. One or more victims were pulled from the wreckage of the rolled vehicle. The parties were rushed to the hospital with unknown injuries.
Both left lanes of traffic were closed to vehicles traveling in the area for some time. Police worked to clear the scene so traffic could resume as normal.
Police have encouraged any witnesses to the accident to come forward with information. Their investigation into the collision remains ongoing.
Our thoughts are with the injured parties in hopes of a full and speedy recovery.
