A woman was killed Friday afternoon when a blown tire led her to swerve into oncoming traffic on Interstate 10 near the Kolb Road exit, officials say.
The woman was driving west on I-10 shortly after 2 p.m. when she crossed the median into the eastbound lanes, leading to a multi-vehicle crash, authorities say.
The woman died at the scene, according to the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Department of Public Safety.
One of the eastbound lanes has reopened near milepost 270, and it is unknown how long it will take to reopen the second.
