A four-vehicle accident shut down traffic on Interstate 80 and sent two people to the hospital Monday morning.
The Iowa State Patrol says a semi being driven by 34-year-old Valeriu Bors of Plainville, Illinois was eastbound near the North Dodge Street exit just before 5:30 a.m. when it rolled for unknown reason, blocking all lanes of traffic.
Three other eastbound semis hit the overturned trailer, including one being driven by 64-year-old Steven Klinefelter of Norwalk, one driven by 58-year-old Neil Wilkerson of Roosevelt, Utah and one driven by 43-year-old Germaine Boucher of Quebec, Canada.
Bors and Klinefleter were each transported to the University of Iowa Health Care Campus Medical Center.
The accident remains under investigation.
