DENISON, Tex. -- U.S. Highway 75 in Denison has reopened despite a mess Tuesday morning.

Southbound lanes of U.S. 75 were blocked after an SUV collided with a semi just after 7 o’clock Tuesday morning.

Authorities think the SUV had a blowout before it slammed into the gas tank on a semi, causing about 300 gallons of diesel to spill onto the highway.

We are told the woman driving the SUV only sustained minor injuries.

The accident did slow traffic for quite awhile.
