Lexington, KY (September 24, 2025) – A serious crash involving injuries occurred shortly after midnight Tuesday on Interstate 64 East near mile marker 84.0 in Lexington. Emergency crews responded at approximately 12:10 a.m. to find at least two vehicles involved and multiple individuals requiring medical attention. Lexington Fire and Rescue personnel quickly stabilized the scene and assisted the injured before coordinating their transport to nearby medical facilities.
The incident led to partial lane closures on the eastbound side of I-64 as officials worked through the early morning hours to investigate and clear the scene. Though traffic volume was light at the time, the closure caused delays for overnight and early commuter traffic heading east through Fayette County.
Authorities have not released further information on the number of injured or the severity of their conditions. The cause of the crash is still under review by local law enforcement.
We send our well wishes to those recovering from this overnight collision and hope for a full recovery.
