A crash Wednesday involving at least 75 vehicles shut down Interstate 95 for about five hours between Newport and Bangor, state police said.

The crash — which involves cars, a school bus and a tractor trailer in the northbound lanes — injured at least 17 people, including at least two in serious condition, according to Maine State Police. Children on the bus were shaken up but not injured.

The collisions began at about 7:30 a.m. ET in heavy snow falling near Etna, Maine, about 30 miles west of Bangor. The main crash involved more than two dozen vehicles, and a series of other wrecks — some with two or three vehicles and others in which vehicles slid off the road to avoid collisions — led up to the crash site, troopers said.

A state police spokesman said 50 vehicles were towed away and an additional 25 were damaged.

Rhonda Kent, an occupational therapist from St. Albans, Maine, said her car was sideswiped amid the pileup, which sent cars and trucks spinning. She was not injured but said a logging truck came dangerously close to hitting her when it spun off into a ditch.
