A serious multi-car accident is blocking all northbound Interstate 5 lanes near South 314th Street in Federal Way.

Washington State Patrol trooper Chris Webb said a vehicle crossed over from southbound I-5 to northbound lanes, striking a vehicle. Six vehicles were involved with at least six minor injuries and one critical injury. A driver was transported to Harborview Medical Center.

All I-5 lanes are closed at South 320th Street. South King Fire andRescue and the Washington State Department of Transportation also responded to the scene.

At 3:05 p.m., Webb said the two middle lanes are open and the other lanes will begin to open up soon, as officials wait for tow trucks to remove some of the vehicles.

The Mirror will update this report as more information becomes available.
