Northbound Interstate 15, near Washington Avenue, was down to one lane Thursday morning following a semitrailer accident, Nevada Highway Patrol said.
The lanes weren’t reopened until about 11:30 a.m., according to a NHP tweet.
The accident, which was reported at 7:19 a.m., involved a two-trailer semitrailer and two other vehicles, trooper Loy Hixson said.
Traffic cameras showed a jackknifed trailer blocking at least three lanes.
One person was taken to an area hospital, Hixson said, and other minor injuries were reported.
