GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) — Interstate 70 closed Tuesday morning after an eastbound semi-truck crossed the median and crashed into another vehicle.

Colorado State Patrol (CSP) officials received a call about the crash at 3:20 a.m. A semi-truck driven by a Denver-area resident crossed the median into the westbound lanes and collided with a semi-truck trailer.

CSP officials say no injuries were reported and only the semi-truck going eastbound needed to be recovered. As of 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, I-70 westbound is closed so officials can recover the vehicle.

The driver of the truck going eastbound was cited for careless driving.
