Big backups have formed on the Inner Loop of the Beltway due to a jackknifed tractor trailer.
The crash happened in the northbound lanes of I-495 between I-66 and Route 7, north of Merrifield. Two lanes of traffic appear to be getting by the crash scene, based on traffic camera images, but major backups have formed.
One person was reported injured and has been transported to a local hospital.
