There was a semi truck / car accident today near Albertville, Minnesota. A tanker truck rolled over into the median on Interstate 94 about 11 a.m. The driver of the truck was maneuvering the truck to avoid hitting a car making an illegal U-turn, when his truck rolled over, leaking fuel all over the highway.

State Patrol Lt. Matt Langer reported that I-94, in both directions, will be closed for hours and thousands of vehicles will be redirected while crews take care of the clean up. The fuel was removed from the tanker by 6 p.m.

Two people sustained minor injuries. The driver of the car may be cited for the illegal U-turn.
