Eastbound I-20 near the Minden exit for LA 531 is still closed this morning due to a semi carrying chemicals overturning at that location earlier this morning.
“The truck was carrying an oxygen displacement chemical and will require hours and hours of clean up,” Minden Police Chief Jared McIver said. “Minden Fire Department is on the scene, Louisiana State Police and Hazmat.”
The accident involved three vehicles and, while no one was injured in the accident, workers and residents in the area have had to evacuate.
Traffic is being diverted only LA 159, but there is increased traffic throughout Minden as a result.
