MILWAUKEE -- Six cars were damaged after a pair of light poles fell on Interstate 43 near Hampton Avenue in Milwaukee County Friday afternoon.

The incident was reported around 3:20 p.m. Friday to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. 

The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office says a truck traveling northbound on Interstate 43 struck the light poles in the median -- which caused debris to strike cars traveling southbound. 

No injuries have been reported.

The incident forced law enforcement to close the left lanes of the interstate for roughly two hours. All lanes have reopened.
