UPDATE: One person was transported from the crash-site to Baptist Attala where they were then flown to another hospital.
According to those on scene, a total of five vehicles were involved in the wreck. It is unclear how the crash occurred. Mississippi Highway Patrol will be in charge of that investigation.
The roadway is now clear for travel.
A multi-vehicle crash involving an 18-wheeler was reported just before 4 p.m. on Highway 35 N, approximately one mile past Culpepper Funeral Home in Attala County.
Attala County deputies, EMS, and the Attala County Fire Department were dispatched to the scene. Multiple injuries have been reported. At least one person became trapped inside a vehicle.
First responders applied a tourniquet to one injured individual to provide aid until an ambulance could arrive.
Highway 35 N is completely shut down in the area as emergency crews work to treat and transport patients and clear the wreckage.
Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes. Further details will be released as they become available.
