Two people are dead and dozens injured following a massive pile-up on Interstate 55 between Rudock and Manchac Monday.

The collisions are being blamed on a combination of fog and smoke from marsh fires.

Three 18-wheelers were involved and at least two were fully engulfed in flames.

The bridge over Lake Maurepas was shut down for recovery efforts.
