The Wisconsin State Patrol reports ten people were injured in a 39-car pileup on U-S Highway 51 in Marathon County.
The chain reaction collision happened at about 4:30 Friday afternoon.
Investigators say the severe winter weather was a factor.
Extrication equipment was used to remove some victims from their cars.
They were taken to local hospitals where their medical conditions haven’t been reported.
The crash shut down traffic in both directions on the busy highway near Wausau for about four hours.
