by Steve Dunford 

WHITTINGTON, IL-  Sesser Fire and Rescue have been toned to a three semi accident at the Interstate 57 Southbound 78 Mile Marker.  This is just north of the Sesser exit.

Please avoid the area.  Updates will be given as they become available.

UPDATE 12:45 a.m.  Sesser Fire crews are still working clearing the accident scene.  As far as injuries, I just know that Air Evac was not needed.  Benton fire has been called in the last 20 minutes to work a single car accident northbound at the 77 mile marker.  I am unsure of lane blockage northbound, but the left hand lane is open southbound.  –  Information taken from Southern Illinois Fire Incidents.
