[Scan-DC] Major incident - 395 in Alexandria

[KRA2829 at aol.com]

Just passed through the area and absolutely no traffic was going NB on 395  
past Seminary. There was about 20 FD vehicles and about a dozen troopers.  
Farther south on 395, I observed more FD and more troopers enroute to the  
scene.

Now  reports are that medic unit (unclear if the actual vehicle or a 
paramedic/EMT)  fell/rolled off of 395 into Four Mile Creek. This would be in 
keeping with  everything I've heard so far.
