HENRICO COUNTY, Va. β€” A busy stretch of Three Chopt Road in Henrico that was closed for more than 12 hours reopened Saturday afternoon, according to police.

Henrico Police were called to the crash in the 7400 block of Three Chopt Road just after 2:45 a.m. That is not far from the Village Market shopping center.

Officials said the crash knocked out power in the area. As crews worked to make repairs, Three Chopt was closed between Skipwith Road and Westham Parkway.

"We are asking drivers to avoid this area and take alternate routes," officers wrote.

Roughly 400 customers were without power as of 7:45 a.m., according to Dominion Energy's website.

No additional details about the crash were available at last check.

Police said in an email around 4:15 p.m. that Three Chopt had reopened.
