Freezing water runoff could have been a factor in two crashes Monday morning.

(Hamilton County, Oh.) - Traffic situations put the brakes on the Monday morning commute in parts of Hamilton County.

A crash occurred at around 6:00 a.m. on Interstate 74 Eastbound between the Morgan Road underpass and the ramp to I-275 Southbound. The wreck forced the closure of I-74 EB for about an hour.

It is unclear if anybody was injured in the wreck.

Elsewhere, a water main break happened on U.S. 50/River Road near Wilkins Short Road in Sayler Park.

Not far from there, a vehicle crashed and overturned on U.S. 50/River Road near Bender Road at around 6:30 a.m. The crash forced the closure of U.S. 50. At least one person was pulled from the wreckage and transported to an area hospital.
