Crews Working to Clean Up Spilled Cement Near Busy Glebe Road Intersection

A cement spill closed a lane and might have damaged a car on S. Glebe Road this afternoon.

The spill happened in the northbound lanes of Glebe just prior to the busy intersection with Columbia Pike. Traffic cameras showed a road crew hastily cleaning up the spill with shovels around 2:45 p.m., blocking the righthand lane.

As seen on the cameras, a white Mercedes Benz was stopped near the spill. Its driver called police to report damage to the car caused by the spill, according to scanner traffic.
