Philadelphia, PA (May 7, 2022) – Emergency crews were dispatched to the scene of a motor vehicle accident in the Navy Yard section of Philadelphia that left at least one person injured. Just after 5 p.m., on May 6, the Philadelphia police and firefighters were called to the scene of a motor vehicle accident on Interstate 95.
Reports provided by the Philadelphia police show that a collision between vehicles blocked the northbound side of Interstate 95 during the evening hours. The incident resulted in moderate delays in the area as crews worked to remove a black sedan and an unknown number of additional vehicles from the roadway that had been involved in a collision.
Emergency medical services responded to the scene to provide medical care to people who suffered injuries as a result of the accident. Those in need of further care were transported to area hospitals.
The crash is under investigation at this time by the Philadelphia Police Department.
Our thoughts are with the victims injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.
