RICHMOND, Va. — Interstate 95 South in Richmond has reopened after a tractor-trailer hauling industrial-size paper rolls crashed closing all lanes near Broad Street at mile marker 75.3 on Thursday morning.
That is near the I-95 and I-64 split and the affected area spanned from Belvidere Street to the Bryan Park interchange.
"At approximately 2:30 a.m., troopers arrived at the scene to find the tractor-trailer on its side.

"She is being charged with reckless driving and improper passing."
