    GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - A semi-truck smashed through a concrete barrier on US-131 just south of the Burton ramps.

    The truck, with two empty flatbed trailers, was heading north, but is now also blocking a southbound lane. The truck is leaking diesel fuel.

    Traffic was backed up on both sides of US-131 between Wealthy and 28th Street, but began flowing freely again in the early afternoon.
