A fuel truck was involved in a crash on southbound Hwy. 252 at 66th Avenue N. in Brooklyn Center. The intersection is blocked. There was no immediate word if the tanker is leaking. Look for lots of flashing lights and delays in the area.
Southbound Hwy. 169 is locked up from 36th Avenue past the scene of a wreck residing on the right shoulder at Medicine Lake Road.
