Deadly Dust Storm Causes Massive Pileup on I-55 in Illinois

Over 30 people were injured and several are dead after a number of crashes during a dust storm on Interstate 55 in Illinois. At least 20 commercial vehicles and 40 to 60 cars were involved in the crashes just before 11 a.m. The highway is shut down in both directions from mile post 63 to 80, and is not expected to reopen until at least Tuesday afternoon. Two semitrailers caught fire, and police believe everyone has been transported from the scene, but officials were conducting a second search of vehicles Monday afternoon.
