Chesapeake, VA (September 23, 2025) – A two-vehicle accident caused multiple injuries Sunday morning at the intersection of Gilmerton Rd and George Washington Hwy N in Chesapeake. The crash occurred just after 11:08 a.m., prompting a coordinated response from local police and emergency medical teams.
Police units were already present when fire and rescue crews arrived at the scene. As responders assessed the situation, additional medical units—including a second medic team—were requested to assist with the number of injured individuals. The nature and extent of the injuries have not been publicly detailed, but multiple victims required on-scene care, with further treatment likely needed at area hospitals.
The crash took place at a signalized intersection that connects two frequently traveled roads in southern Chesapeake. As authorities worked to investigate and clear the vehicles, traffic in the immediate area was temporarily rerouted. Emergency personnel established “Gilmerton Command” to coordinate rescue and medical efforts while police began collecting evidence to determine the sequence of events.
Investigators have not yet released specifics about what caused the collision, nor have they identified those involved. Updates are expected once officials complete their preliminary findings.
We extend our best wishes to those injured in the crash and hope for a full and swift recovery.
