SHARONVILLE - An accident involving a tractor-trailer and car has slowed traffic on northbound Interstate 75 just before the eastbound I-275 ramp, according to Artimis.

There are still delays in both directions.

The tractor-trailer overturned, flipping a load of onions off to the right side of the road. The truck was righted about 7:30 a.m. and placed on a tow truck.

"It's a crying shame, isn't it?" quipped Ben Spears, a Hamilton County dispatcher.

A passing motorist said the area smelled of onions.


No injuries have been reported, but a utility pole was shredded and live wires were exposed, he said.

The estimated clear time is noon, according to Artimis.

The Enquirer will update this story as information develops.
