(Updated at 11:15 p.m.) A multi-vehicle crash has temporarily blocked all lanes of the GW Parkway in Arlington.
The crash happened near the scenic overlooks on the parkway. Initial reports suggest that one of the vehicles involved crashed into a tree in the median, and that firefighters had to extricate an occupant of the vehicle who was trapped inside.
One patient is being transported to the trauma center at George Washington University Hospital, according to scanner traffic.
The parkway is expected to remain at least partially blocked for much of the evening due to due downed trees.
