CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. — Two wrecks backed up traffic on I-95 north in Chesterfield County Wednesday afternoon.

State police said the other accident  happened on I-95 north  just before mile marker 67 approaching the Pocahontas Parkway exit.

Virginia State Police said fire and rescue crews have lanes blocked, which caused heavy congestion.
