Hall County Sheriff's Office (HCSO) deputies were called to navigate traffic around a multiple vehicle wreck that blocked Interstate 985's southbound lanes late Tuesday morning.

Eyewitness accounts confirmed what the HCSO social media page reported after 9:15 a.m. on June 9, 2026 that all travel lanes were affected on I-985 South before Spout Springs Road (Exit 12) due to multiple vehicles involved along the left lanes and shoulder of the roadway.  HCSO was directing commuters from Hall County and points northward to use alternate routes by  Exit 14 (H.F. Reed Industrial Parkway) to avoid further delays.

Officials have not commented on exactly how many vehicles were involved, if any injuries occurred or if there are any citations/charges pending from the wreck as it remains under investigation at the time of this publication.
