Pamela Montgomery has taken a formidable lead in fundraising as she and Delegate Candi King (D–Stafford, Woodbridge) face each other in Tuesday’s Democratic Primary.

At 2:29 p.m. Monday, June 1, Virginia State Police responded to the southbound lanes of Interstate 95 for a vehicle crash.
Several witnesses had observed a Honda sedan weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed just before it made a sudden lane change and ran off the right side of the interstate. The Honda struck the guardrail, re-entered the travel lanes and struck a tractor-trailer. The impact of the crash caused both vehicles to catch fire.
