Hazardous material leaking; I-17 closed south of Flagstaff

The Associated Press
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 12.31.2007
FLAGSTAFF — The southbound lanes of Interstate 17 are closed about 30 miles south of Flagstaff after a fatal accident involving hazardous materials Monday morning.
The lanes were closed at about 3:45 a.m. and are expected to be closed much of the day.
Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman Bart Graves says a semi truck driver lost control of his rig and slammed into rocks and boulders in the median. Graves says the dead driver appeared to be crushed inside the cab. The semi carried numerous 55-gallon plastic drums of corrosive material, many of which were scattered throughout the highway and nearby land.
Hazardous materials teams are on site.
Travelers can use State Route 89A through Oak Creek Canyon as an alternative or Interstate 40 eastbound to State Route 87 through Payson.
