2:46 AM: If you’re heading onto the eastbound West Seattle Bridge at this early hour, you won’t get beyond the exit to 99. Just beyond that is what was reported over police radio as a three-vehicle crash, involving a tanker truck. No word on injuries, but SFD was dispatched.

3:18 AM: Still blocking. The three vehicles are reported to be two SUVs and a commercial truck/trailer. One driver – we do NOT know which vehicle – is in custody for investigation of possible DUI.

4:09 AM: Police are clearing the scene but just told dispatch that SDOT is keeping two lanes blocked for a while longer, and that the tow for the truck is on the way. One EB lane is now open for traffic to get through.
