    DANVERS, Mass. (WCVB) — Three dumpsters fell off a truck and onto Interstate 95 in Danvers, Massachusetts, early Friday.

The truck that was carrying the dumpsters may have struck the Centre Street overpass on the northbound side of the highway near Exit 69 causing the dumpsters to fall onto the road, Massachusetts State Police said.

It appears another truck struck one of the dumpsters and a car hit that truck, officials said.

Three lanes of travel were blocked as crews worked to clear the mess.

WCVB will have more information when it becomes available.
