    A logging truck then hit the black car, causing a chain reaction crash in the interstate's westbound lanes that included four other tractor trailers. Baker said 10 people have been transported by ambulance to area hospitals, including the driver of the black Subaru. The man sustained serious injuries, but they aren't considered lift threatening, Baker said. (AP Photo)
