No major injuries from Thursday morning's semi-truck crash that shut down eastbound I-96 at D-19 for several hours. It was first reported around 5:30 am and not cleared until about 10 am.
Eastbound traffic was detoured onto M-59/Highland and along Grand River.
Livingston County Sheriff's Office reports the driver went off onto the soft shoulder in a construction zone, and blocked the right lanes. A cause was not given.
During the shutdown, there was also a multi-vehicle accident on the westbound side of I-96 at Latson, which tied up traffic there for a couple hours.
No injuries reported there either.
