Texas-Oklahoma highway closed due to fatal crash – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

One person died in a multi-vehicle crash and fuel spill in Cooke County Friday morning, officials say.

A collision involving at least three vehicles, including a tractor-trailer, a rock hauler and a passenger vehicle, has closed the northbound lanes of Interstate 35 near Valley View, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Officials have not yet said what caused the crash and have not released information about the person killed in the crash. No other injuries were confirmed.

The Texas Department of Transportation said the crash near Hockley Creek Road initially shut down traffic in both directions, but the southbound lanes have since reopened.

Before the northbound lanes reopen, extensive cleanup work, including fuel and oil cleanup, must be completed.

Northbound traffic is on Frontage Road.
