(Earlier report) ADOT: Westbound Loop 202 closed at I-10 due to crash

PHOENIX - Arizona Department of Transportation says the westbound Loop 202 is back open at Interstate 10, after it was closed earlier on Nov. 2 because of a crash.

According to ADOT, all westbound traffic on the Loop 202 South Mountain was diverted to I-10 at one point.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety said the crash happened when the driver of a cement truck experienced a tire blow out and swerved left, colliding with the median. The cement truck kept going and crashed into a Ford Mustang that ended up underneath the rear axle of the truck.

The driver of the cement truck has life-threatening injuries and the driver of the Mustang has serious injuries.
