Many of those patients were extricated when the van became trapped by the box truck around 12:50 p.m. MCFRS Pete Piringer said all injuries were non-life-threatening.

The box truck was traveling on the northbound side of I-270 when it lost its tire, jumped over the wall, and collided with the van that was going in the opposite direction, officials said. Some lanes were blocked as a result of the crash and a tow truck came to lift the box truck.
