3:30 p.m. Update from Virginia State Police: “At 5:08 a.m. Sunday (Nov. 19, 2023), Virginia State Police responded to a two-vehicle crash in Prince William County. A tractor-trailer and a sedan collided in the southbound lanes of I-95 at the 156 mile marker. The tractor-trailer struck the pillar supporting the flyover ramp, which caused the trailer to rip open and lose its contents.”
“While the driver of the sedan was being treated by EMS at the scene, he left the ambulance and fled the scene on foot. State police are following up on several leads regarding his location.”
