A multiple-vehicle accident on U.S. 17 across the Talmadge Bridge in South Carolina is causing traffic delays this morning in both directions.
Chief Doug Graham of the Levy Fire Department said that emergency respondents were still working to clear the road at 8:30 a.m., but that traffic should be flowing freely again by 9 a.m.
Emergency respondents arrived at the scene of the three-vehicle collision at 7:17 a.m., according to South Carolina Highway Patrol records.
Graham said there no fatalities, but 6 people were transported to the hospital for what appeared to be non life-threatening injuries. One of the cars caught fire.
