Traffic on U.S. Route 33 was slowed early Friday morning due to two separate crashes that occurred around 6:00 a.m.

The first involved a vehicle that went off the road and ended up in the median near the County Road 10 exit in Bellefontaine.

A second crash happened shortly after between State Route 292 and State Route 347, where a truck overturned in the median.

According to initial reports from the Ohio State Highway Patrol, the truck was hauling a trailer that contained a side-by-side ATV, a Jaguar, and a Dodge Ram.

Foggy conditions may have played a role in both accidents, though official causes have not yet been confirmed.

Law enforcement is investigating, and more information is expected to be released at a later date.
