HANOVER COUNTY, Va. -- Three people were killed in a wreck after a car stopped in the center lane of Interstate 95 in Hanover County early Saturday morning, according to Virginia State Police.

Troopers said the crash happened around 2:10 a.m. along I-95 south about a mile from the Lewistown Road exit.

A Nissan Sentra with a Maryland registration that was stopped in the center lane of I-95 for "unknown reasons" was rear-ended by a Dodge Ram pick-up, officials said.

A 21-year-old man also from Annapolis was taken to VCU Medical Center with injuries described as serious, but non-life-threatening.

The driver of the pickup was not hurt, according to troopers.

The wreck, which closed all lanes of I-95 south, remains under investigation, officials said. All of the interstate's lanes had reopened and the scene was clear as of about 6:45 a.m.
