WESTFIELD, Ind. (WRTV) -- A Tuesday crash involving a semitractor-trailer and two passenger vehicles closed U.S. 31 northbound just north of 226th Street near Westfield.

No one was hurt.

Dispatchers got the 911 call at about 3:15 Tuesday afternoon. About 6:45 Tuesday evening, crews had completed cleanup and reopened U.S. 31.

The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office shared on Facebook that the crash is blocking all northbound lanes. Indiana Department of Transportation traffic cameras showed the semi rolled over across all northbound lanes.

In an email, Sgt. Bryan Melton, the sheriff's office's public information officer, said no injuries were reported as a result of the crash. He said the collision involved two pickup trucks, both towing trailers, and a semitractor pulling a box trailer.

The semi's trailer was carrying dry cargo, Melton said, which remained secured in the trailer, but the crash resulted in a fuel spill from the semi's side tanks as well as oil on the roadway.
