COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Traffic was stopped and Interstate 70 westbound closed Friday morning after a tractor-trailer rolled onto its side around the 135 mile marker.

The Missouri Department of Transportation's Central District posted about the crash on social media at about 6:45 a.m. The crash and cleanup caused first responders to close both westbound lanes and the eastbound passing lane.

All lanes were open by 7:15 a.m., according to MoDOT. No one was injured, a Boone County Fire Protection District spokesperson said.
