Bailey Loosemore, Louisville Courier Journal:
A woman was rescued from a tractor trailer after being involved in a four-vehicle accident that left the truck dangling precariously from the Clark Memorial Bridge Friday.
Louisville Fire Chief Brian O’Neill said the woman was rescued from the cabin at 12:45 p.m., about 40 minutes after the collision occurred.
Two other people involved in the accident have been transported to an area hospital with life-threatening injuries, Louisville Metro Police spokesperson Aaron Ellis said in a statement.
The bridge, which connects Kentucky and Southern Indiana, remains closed to traffic while LMPD and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet assess damage and clear the scene. Drivers are advised to avoid the area.
