Around 9:28 p.m., State Police initiated a traffic pursuit on Interstate 264 WB at Newtown Road, when a VSP supervisor observed an Acura speeding.

As the vehicle approached the Broad Creek Bridge, the vehicle attempted to weave in between vehicles and in doing so, struck the rear of a 2007 Lexus ES350.

This caused the Acura to become disabled and stop in the middle of the interstate.

The driver and all passengers exited the vehicle and surrendered to troopers.
