Rock slide slows traffic

Workers with the state highway department were on the scene of a rock slide on Highway 15 in the Jeff community Wednesday morning that closed both northbound lanes. Several boulders had been dislodged from the hillside above the road, though crews had begun removing the rocks at approximately 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. Police were on the scene directing traffic, and no injuries have been reported.
