3-vehicle crash on I-94 in St. Clair Shores; at-fault driver may have been intoxicated

Eastbound I-94 has been closed at 10 Mile due to a crash involving a three-vehicle crash Thursday.

The driver suspected of causing the crash is being investigated for being under the influence. Inside her vehicle police found whippets, marijuana and open intoxicants.

Investigators say she was speeding and tried to fit between two other vehicles already on the freeway before hitting a semi-truck and another car at 11:50 a.m., according to Michigan State Police. 

The semi leaked large amounts of oil across the roadway adding to the clean-up time.

The driver and passenger in the at fault vehicle were transported to a local hospital for treatment of their injuries. No one else involved in the crash were hurt.

No other injuries are reported but due to the large amount of oil spread across the freeway, the freeway was closed. I-94 is expected to be closed for several hours due to the investigation and clean up.

"Currently a search warrant is being written for a blood draw of the suspect driver," Michigan State Police said in a statement. "Once the investigation is completed, an investigators. The freeway remains closed."
