Story #1

There was a 14 car pileup this morning on Interstate 790 at 6:45am. It seems that two tractor trailers collided with a bad ending result. Police are still investigating on what exactly happened with the two vehicles this morning.
As a result of the crash, there were two fatalities along with two of the worst injured who were air lifted with a "Life Flight" helicopter to the trauma center in Statesville. 18 more were injured and some were sent to the hospital by ambulance as well.
By talking to the police, it is still unclear as to why the two tractor trailers made contact in the first place. As 10am rolls around, police are still getting statements and getting the scene cleared up. But as of yet, there hasn't been any charges made against the two drivers because they are still unsure of what happened without a complete report filed yet.
According to Sgt. Albert Wei of the police department, one of the trailers was hauling diesel fuel. "Thankfully it didn't roll over or catch on fire." But as Wei says "I haven't seen anything this bad in the 18 and a half years that of been with the dept." "The scene looked like something from a war zone." said by Fire Chief Tony Sullivan.
As people sat on the side of the road, police had a hard time figuring which bloody person belonged to which broken car. A lot of the cars had to be ripped apart so that people could even get out of them.
It looks like Interstate 790 is closed from both north and south bound lanes with no chances of opening anytime soon. So for now it looks like traffic will be redirected to Interstate 690 on the eastern side of the city. Backups are expected up to three hours so plan accordingly.
