A two-vehicle collision on Roane State Highway has shut down both lanes of traffic near Mike’s Body Shop, triggering delays and emergency diversions.

According to initial emergency radio traffic, responding crews have closed the main roadway and are currently routing vehicles through a nearby parking lot to bypass the crash scene.

At least two people are being evaluated by first responders. One individual reportedly sustained minor cuts and requested medical attention, while crews are assessing a second patient at the scene.

Drivers are strongly advised to avoid the area if possible, expect significant delays, and exercise extreme caution if traveling through the vicinity.

Because this is a developing situation based on early scanner traffic, details may change as first responders continue their investigation. Further updates will be provided as official information becomes available.
