Four motorists were taken to University Medical Center with unspecified injuries, but a female passenger was later reported in critical condition. Some passengers were ejected, Buratczuk said, and some were minors.

Northbound traffic was exiting the freeway at mile marker 12 near Jean before freeway traffic resumed about 7 a.m.
