Virginia beach Trooper injured in a collision

Virginia beach lawyer news: (WAVY) —In Chesapeake on March 10, a state trooper suffered injuries while en route to a vehicle crash response. At approximately 12:50 a.m., the trooper attended to an overturned vehicle incident on I-464, near Military Highway and Freeman Avenue. During the entrance onto I-464 from the Military Highway on-ramp, the trooper collided with the rear of a stationary 2018 Honda Accord in the travel lane.

The Honda, occupied by two individuals, fortunately avoided serious injuries. Contrastingly, the trooper was transported to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital with injuries deemed non-life-threatening.
