Nesreća se dogodila na međudržavnom putu u blizini centra Fort Vorta.
Na fotografijama objavljenim na društvenim medijima vide se „naređana“ vozila koja su potpuno blokirala put.
Lokalni mediji izveštavaju da je desetine osoba povređeno, kao i da su neki od njih u kritičnom stanju.
Tough scene to witness in #FortWorth. Crews are forced to use cranes to lift cars off...other cars. No time table for when I-35W is reopening.

FD tells @kaylamc1 the concern now is hypothermia. A warming bus is on scene as firefighters are still in process of trying to extricate people. pic.twitter.com/3EkC2933sR
