Eastbound LIE near Exit 49 reopened

The eastbound lanes of the Long Island Expressway starting at Exit 49 have reopened after they were closed for about an hour Thursday, according to a state Department of Transportation website.

Two people were taken to Huntington Hospital with minor neck and back injuries, according to the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office. A spokeswoman did not have any more information on their conditions.

The car overturned at about 1:15 p.m. near the Bagatelle Road exit in Half Hollow Hills and was removed a little more than an hour later, according to information posted at informny.com.

Cameras showed traffic at a virtual standstill for several exits before the car was removed.
