RICHMOND, Va. — One person is dead following a crash on Interstate 95 in Richmond Tuesday evening, according to Virginia State Police.
The crash occurred at approximately 7:54 p.m. on I-95 southbound near the Exit 75 interchange for Interstate 64 eastbound in the City of Richmond.
A 2004 Lexus RX330 was traveling south on I-95 between the 77 and 76 mile markers when witnesses reported the vehicle sideswiped a Honda Fit, struck the left concrete jersey wall, and overturned into the left lane of I-95 southbound prior to Exit 75, a Virginia State Police spokesperson said citing the preliminary investigation.
The driver of the Lexus died at the scene and their identity is being withheld pending next-of-kin notification.
Virginia State Police say the driver was not wearing a seatbelt.
Concrete debris from the crash struck at least three vehicles traveling on I-95 northbound, though no crashes were reported on that side of the highway.
Following the crash, the north left shoulder and left lane, as well as the south left shoulder and left lane, were closed for the investigation and clean-up.
Virginia State Police say the crash remains under investigation.
