A crash on westbound M-14 shut down both lanes of the freeway Tuesday morning, a dispatcher with the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office said.

Emergency crews including the Michigan State Police were dispatched to M-14 east of Ford Road at 8:05 a.m. for a three-car accident, according to Joyce Williams with Huron Valley Ambulance.

One of the vehicles had rolled over, Williams said. The two lanes of the freeway were temporarily shut down so wreckers could access the vehicles, the state police said. As of 8:30 a.m., the state police said the freeway was back open.

HVA was treating one stable patient on the scene, but there were no immediate transports to the hospital, Williams said.

Updated at 9:30 a.m.: Williams said one patient was transported in stable condition to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital.
