Hawkeye fans were in a bad enough mood following Iowa’s 20-19 loss to Iowa State on Saturday, but those heading back to central Iowa had another headache as a car crash tied up traffic west of Iowa City after the game.

The Iowa Department of Transportation reported an accident on westbound Interstate 80 near the Oxford exit just after 7:15 p.m. Multiple vehicles were involved, and the DOT warned of long delays. The roadway was reopened to traffic around 8:00.

No other details about the crash have been made available.
