A early morning crash on I-75 South killed one person and injured two others on Saturday.

The 5 a.m. wreck shut down the I-285 eastbound exit ramp onto I-75 and backed up traffic for nearly six hours.

The two injured were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, Channel 2 Action News reported, citing Clayton County police. The conditions of those injured are unclear.

A tractor-trailer appeared to have been overturned in the crash, which occurred near exit 58. At least one other car was involved, according to the news station.

After nearly six hours, the ramp is now open.
