Crews worked for about five hours Monday to clean up a crash on I-20 in west Atlanta that involved a recreational vehicle.
Two people were trapped inside the RV when it overturned at Hamilton E. Holmes Drive, according to an Atlanta fire official. The vehicle collided with a smaller SUV, and both left the interstate.
It took rescue crews about an hour to free the trapped passengers, Atlanta fire Sgt. Cortez Stafford told AJC.com.
“The motor of the RV, when it flipped over, was on top of one of the victims,” he said.
Both victims, a man and a woman, were stable before they were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. At least three other people were injured in the crash, but none were seriously hurt, Stafford said.
It was unclear how many people were traveling in the SUV.
While the cleanup was underway, authorities blocked all but one westbound lane. All lanes reopened just before 4:30 p.m.
