At least three people were killed early Thursday after a fiery crash involving semi-trucks on Interstate 10 in Chandler, authorities said,

Arizona Department of Public Safety officials said the chain-reaction crash around 6 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 12, blocked multiple lanes of I-10.

DPS said a big rig crashed into a passenger car that was pushed into another semi-truck and two other vehicles.

Two people inside the car died at the scene, and the third victim was inside another vehicle, according to DPS.

The names and ages of the people killed weren’t immediately released by authorities.

DPS said it took nearly 30 minutes to extinguish the blaze caused in the crash.
