Reports confirm that there was one person injured in the crash, maybe more. The Madison Police, as well as the paramedics, were called to the scene to provide assistance to the injured parties involved.
The initial call for help came into dispatchers at 5:30 p.m. The crash closed three lanes of the eastbound Beltline. The closures lasted about an hour.
Our thoughts are with the injured parties in hopes of a full recovery.

Distracted driving, intoxication, speeding, not paying attention to the road, and not following the rules of the road will lead to accidents. There are more than 1000 injuries from distracted drivers every day. In 95% of all car accidents, driver error is the cause. A driver is 23 times more likely to get into a car accident when they are texting while driving versus paying attention to the road alone. Yet one in three American drivers admits that they text while they drive.
