Quebec provincial police say a driver of a tractor trailer was injured after a pileup on Highway 25 in Montreal on Monday morning.

Quebec provincial police say the driver of a semi-trailer truck suffered minor injuries after a pile-up on Highway 25 in Montreal on Monday morning.

The person’s life is not expected to be in danger.

The incident occurred at 10 a.m. near Beaubien Street.

The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) says the large truck failed to slow down for traffic and struck another semi-trailer in front of it.

The collision caused a chain reaction of crashes involving multiple vehicles, including a pickup that was towing a small boat.

The vehicles were heading toward the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine tunnel, which connects to the South Shore.

The southbound Highway 25 has been closed to traffic in the area, causing congestion for other motorists.
