ORIGINAL:
I am on the scene of a two-vehicle crash, with injuries, in Pike County.
Kentucky State Police Post 9 and a host of other agencies are on the scene and traffic in the northbound lanes is blocked on US 119, one mile from the Phelps exit.
First responders say the road will likely be blocked for several hours and they ask drivers to avoid the location and take an alternate route. They are rerouting all oncoming traffic back toward the closest detour.
