WEST BATON ROUGE - A Friday (Feb. 19) morning multi-vehicle crash with injuries on the Old Mississippi River Bridge has been cleared and the bridge has been reopened following a temporary closure of US 190 East at LA 1.

The reopening occurred around 8 a.m.

According to Louisiana State Police, while ice on the road did not directly cause the crash, authorities suspect icy conditions may have played a role in the incident.
