Fort Wayne, IN – Drivers traveling along Interstate 69 north of Fort Wayne are experiencing slowdowns this morning after a crash involving property damage amid snowy road conditions.

According to the Indiana State Police Fort Wayne Post, troopers are working a property damage crash on I-69 North just north of Union Chapel Road. The incident was reported via the agency’s official social media shortly before the morning commute, as light snow and slick pavement covered much of the area.

Traffic images from the scene show multiple vehicles, including commercial trucks, backed up along the right lanes as responders manage the scene. Snow-covered shoulders and reduced visibility appear to be contributing factors, though officials have not released details on how the crash occurred or how many vehicles were involved.

No injuries have been reported at this time, and police have not indicated that the interstate is fully closed. However, motorists should expect delays and intermittent slowdowns while crews continue working in the area.

The crash is located in Allen County, along a busy stretch of I-69 that connects Fort Wayne to surrounding northeast Indiana communities. With winter weather continuing across the region, state police are urging drivers to reduce speeds, increase following distance, and remain alert for sudden stops.

As of this update, cleanup efforts remain ongoing. Drivers traveling through the Fort Wayne area are encouraged to check traffic apps for real-time conditions or consider alternate routes until normal traffic flow resumes.

Anyone who witnessed the crash or has dashcam footage may be asked to assist investigators if additional details are needed.
