Flash flooding on southbound I-35W may have led to an accident in which a vehicle slid under a tanker truck.

The vehicle became wedged under the tanker and poked a hole in the truck. Word is the truck was hauling thousands of gallons of diesel fuel and it is leaking, said Jason Atnry of the Regional Transportation Management Center.

There is no word of injuries. The right two lanes are closed.
