No one was injured in a three-vehicle crash involving two big trucks Thursday on westbound U.S. 90 at Southeast Boulevard. At 11:20 a.m., a 2013 Freightliner from Houston, Texas, driven by Dyron Harris, 46, was driving in the right lane when he switched into the left lane, hitting a 1997 Peterbilt. This caused the second 18-wheeler’s trailer to shift into the turning lane, where it struck a 2004 Avalanche. Harris was cited for careless operation, according to Louisiana State Police Troop I. At least one lane of westbound U.S. 90 was closed until about 2 p.m.
