Multiple pileups near the Illinois-Wisconsin border Friday, including one that sent 27 people to the hospital, shut down multiple major roadways ahead of the afternoon rush hour and as bands of snow made their way across the area. Illinois State Police said one accident was reported around 1:45 p.m. on Interstate 94 westbound at Russell Road, involving between 15 and 70 cars. Wisconsin State Patrol alerted the police department of the crash just across the Illinois-Wisconsin border, which ultimately shut down the interstate.
