The southbound lanes of Interstate 494 have been closed at Interstate 94 in Oakdale in the wake of a semitrailer truck's rollover, the Minnesota State Patrol said Thursday evening.

The lanes will be closed for some time as accident investigators reconstruct the crash, the patrol said. "There are non-life threatening injuries" in the crash, it added.

Motorists in the area are advised to find alternative routes.
