Chamberlayne closed off around noon today

Anyone know what was going on? It was closed from about Tazewell St. to Overbrook Rd. There were flares on the road, tons of police cars and vans, and caution tape across the road. It took me about 15 min longer to get to Lewis Ginter from the traffic being backed up. I’m just curious and being a Nosey Nelly. I hope everyone was okay!

Edited for clarification: I was not complaining that it took me longer to get to Lewis Ginter just provided that for context.

Edited for answer: a pedestrian was killed. Just absolutely tragic.
