Five people, including a state trooper, were treated for injuries following a four-vehicle crash on Interstate 66 in Centreville. The crash closed westbound lanes of I-66 near the northbound Route 28 exit for more than an hour Wednesday.
The chain reaction began when the driver of a Dodge Caravan lost control of his vehicle due to a medical condition, according to Virginia State Police. The minivan struck a Dodge Charger and both vehicles spun out of control, hitting a Mercury SUV, which rolled twice before coming to rest on its wheels, and a Buick LaSabre.
The Caravan then hit an embankment and began burning. State Police Trooper K.J. Brown witnessed the accident and went to assist the driver of the Caravan. The doors were jammed shut, so Brown broke out a window and pulled the driver out. Shortly afterward, the van was engulfed in flames, police said.
