Fuel Spill, Multiple Accidents on I-10 in Jackson County

A fuel spill shuts down part of I-10 in Jackson County causing multiple accidents.
Mississippi Highway Patrol Spokesman Chase Elkins tells News 25 an 18-wheeler was leaking about 50 gallons of diesel fuel onto the east bound lane near mile marker 51 so crews shut down the right lane.
Shortly after, a string of cars rear ended each other causing traffic to back up. A few passengers were treated for minor injuries.
MDEQ was also on scene cleaning up the fuel spill.
