More than 100 vehicles smashed into each other or slid off the interstate in Michigan on Monday (January 19) as snow fuelled by the Great Lakes blanketed the state.
The massive pileup prompted the Michigan State Police to close a section of Interstate 196 while officials worked to remove all the vehicles, including more than 30 semitrailer trucks.
The State Police said there were numerous injuries, but no deaths had been reported. The crash is the latest impact of the major winter storm moving across the US.

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Monday (January 19) indicated that the leadership issue involving him and CM Siddaramaiah has been discussed by the two leaders in the presence of the Congress high command, and they have arrived at a decision and that there was time for everything.

Shivakumar, who is also the state Congress President, asserted that he has the support of 140 ruling legislators, including CM Siddaramaiah.
