LIMON, COLO. (AP) -- One person has been injured after a semi-tractor-trailer carrying hazardous materials wrecked and caught fire on Interstate 70 near Limon.

The Colorado State Patrol said Friday westbound lanes were closed following four separate accidents, including the truck carrying a glue-like material that caught fire. The extent of the man's injuries was not known.

Trooper Josh Lewis said snow and ice were reported in the area and several trucks were involved in the accidents.
