Three crashes on I-90 cause backup west of Liberty Lake

Three collisions on Interstate 90 caused a lengthy backup during the morning commute Wednesday and left at least one person injured, the Washington State Patrol reported.

All three crashes happened shortly before 7 a.m. just west of Liberty Lake. The most serious involved four vehicles in the left lane and caused injuries. The other crashes involved two vehicles each, the WSP reported.

The vehicles were removed from the roadway by 7:30 a.m., but emergency vehicles and personnel were still on scene, partially blocking traffic, the WSP reported.
