(La Porte County, IN) - Traffic on the Indiana Toll Road near Westville is moving again following a motor vehicle accident this morning.

 

Emergency responders about 10 a.m. were called to a report of a personal injury accident just west of the U.S. 421 exit.

 

Police radio traffic indicated “heavy extrication” was needed to reach an individual trapped in the vehicle.

 

The Toll Road was blocked to provide a landing spot for a medical helicopter.

 

Both lanes reopened about one hour later.

 

Firefighters from Coolspring and Springfield townships were among the emergency responders dispatched to the accident scene.
