MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A woman and a man were left injured after a crash involving a tractor-trailer on Interstate 40 Wednesday morning.
Officers say they responded to a three-vehicle crash involving a stalled car and an overturned tractor-trailer on I-40 and Whitten Road.
A woman was taken f
rom the scene to Regional One Hospital in critical condition, and a man was taken non-critical.
Memphis Police say all eastbound lanes of traffic on I-40 at Whitten Road are shut down. Westbound lanes of traffic are not shut down, but this will cause delays.
