A tractor-trailer crash shut down Interstate 64 for nearly seven hours Thursday morning. It happened around 2 a.m. at the 15-mile marker in Posey County, just west of the Vanderburgh County line. Indiana State Police tell us the tractor-trailer overturned after the driver fell asleep behind the wheel. By the time the driver woke up, it was flipping over on the interstate, blocking both westbound lanes. Those lanes, between the Cynthiana and Poseyville exits, were closed for about 6 1/2 hours.
