Emergency crews responded to a weather-related  six-vehicle crash in Terre Haute Sunday night.

No injuries were reported at the scene of the crash on Fruitridge Avenue, just north of Locust Street on the overpass around 9 p.m.

According to scanner traffic, the roadway was very slick after a mix of freezing rain and snow in the area. The Terre Haute Street Department arrived after the crash to treat the area with sand and salt.

The vehicles collided in the northbound lanes and were facing various directions when crews arrived. The vehicles, including an SUV, a pickup truck and several passenger cars, all sustained heavy damage and were towed from the scene.
