Traffic cameras are showing multiple lanes blocked off at this time.

We reached out to the North Las Vegas Police Department (NLVPD) for more information, and learned that they responded to a single-vehicle rollover at around 1:57 p.m. on Friday.

NLVPD shared that the semi-truck was carrying furniture, and that no injuries were reported. No other vehicles were involved with this incident either.

Because of a fluid leak and the nature of the crash, NLVPD said that the North Las Vegas Fire Department responded. Westbound lanes on Craig Road experienced a temporary closure as the area was secured and the semi-truck was towed off by a heavy-duty tow truck.
