Officials said a gray Jeep Wrangler was traveling on I-43/94 westbound at Canal St. when it's believed the driver hit the median and rolled over, partially ejecting the driver. A second vehicle, a GMC Sonoma, then hit the Wrangler, as well as a red Toyota.

The drivers of the Wrangler and Sonoma were pronounced dead at the scene. The driver and passenger of the Toyota were uninjured.

All northbound traffic was being diverted off at National Avenue. The lanes fully reopened just before 8:30 a.m.

No other details were released.
