CLEVELAND - Interstate 90 westbound was closed Saturday at Dead Man's Curve for several hours after a diesel fuel spill.
Cleveland Police told NewsChannel 5 that a tractor-trailer struck a guardrail just after 5:30 a.m.
The crash punctured a diesel saddle tank on the right side of the truck, which caused a gas leak.
The semi leaked diesel fuel onto Dead Man's Curve. I-90 west will be closed for several hours as hazmat crews clean up the spill.
There were no reports of injuries.
Officials with ODOT said the road was reopened at 5:30 p.m.
