SB I-395 Closes Due to Car Fire

A car fire prompted a closure of southbound I-395 at Glebe Road this morning.

The incident started just before 8 a.m. A vehicle in the lefthand lanes adjacent to the Glebe exit somehow became fully engulfed in flames. The fire department responded and helped to extinguish the blaze.

The cleanup from the fire is ongoing but the right-hand lane of SB I-395 reopened around 9:30 a.m.
