Watch: ODOT camera captures fiery I-70 crash involving tractor-trailer
Video from a Ohio Department of Transportation camera captured a fiery crash involving a tractor-trailer early Monday morning.
The crash closed a portion of Interstate 70 eastbound on the city's west side for nearly eight hours on Monday. No serious injuries were reported in the crash.
I don't post many crash videos, but this morning, a semi on I-70 near Columbus crashed into a concrete barrier wall. Believe it or not, the driver climbs out of the cab and walks away. An absolute miracle that no one was seriously hurt. pic.twitter.com/uVl8rS9jrW

Around 1:15 a.m. Monday, the tractor-trailer struck a concrete barrier wall near the I-70 east and Interstate 270 interchange. The trailer burst into flames; however, the driver was able to climb out of the cab and walk away from the crash.
No other vehicles were involved.
