VIRGINIA, USA — Virginia State Police are investigating a hit-and-run resulting in a three-vehicle crash that occurred on Thursday along I-95 in Fairfax County.
At 11:19 p.m., Virginia State Police say officers attempted to conduct a traffic stop involving a grey Honda Odyssey that was speeding westbound on Interstate 495. The driver of the Odyssey refused to stop, leading to a pursuit.
During the pursuit, the Odyssey hit a vehicle near the exit for Route 1 and continued driving. The pursuit continued until the driver struck a Toyota 4-Runner and a tractor-trailer near the exit for Route 123.
The Odyssey rolled to its side before stopping. The driver, identified as 18-year-old Everett T. Smith, suffered minor injuries and was charged with reckless driving, speeding, eluding law enforcement, hit-and-run, reckless driving, and operating an unregistered vehicle.
The driver of the 4-Runner was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The drivers of the tractor-trailer and the first hit-and-run were uninjured.
It is unclear if Smith remains in police custody.
