A collision involving multiple vehicles blocked all lanes of Interstate 5 (I-5) in Federal Way except for the HOV lane just after 7 a.m. The lanes were cleared just after 8 a.m., but the crash caused a nine-mile backup.

As of this reporting, most of the backup traffic has dissipated.

When officers arrived at the scene, they used one of their police vehicles to move a flipped car out of the morning commute traffic. Fire Assistance crews, the Washington State Patrol (WSP) and the Incident Response Team all responded to the scene on I-5 in Federal Way, according to the (WSDOT).
