A woman was killed when she ran into the back of a semi that was parked on the shoulder of I-35 and Clare Road early Saturday morning.

The Johnson County Sheriff's office and Gardner police were called to an injury accident just before 2:00 Saturday morning.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene. The semi driver was not hurt in the crash.

Deputy Claire Canaan says it's unknown why the semi was parked on the shoulder, and what led the sedan to crash into the semi.

Southbound I-35 was shut down at Lone Elm while accident Investigators worked the scene.

The highway was re-opened about 6:00 a.m.

The identity of the victim has not yet been released.
