CHESAPEAKE, Va. — A Chesapeake man has died after a car crash Wednesday on I-464 in Chesapeake, says Virginia State Police (VSP).
VSP says their investigations revealed that around 4 p.m., the driver of a 2005 Toyota Sienna, 70-year-old Wallace James Miller Jr., was driving northbound on I-464 near the Poindexter Street exit when he had a medical emergency.
Due to the medical emergency, Millers ran off the roadway to the left and struck the guardrail, continued back into travel lanes and struck a 2018 Freightliner tractor-trailer. The vehicle then crossed all lanes of traffic and struck the guard rail on the right, and bounced back into the Freightliner.
After the second time hitting the Freightliner, the Toyota drove off the roadway, struck a ditch and hit several trees.
Miller was taken to Norfolk General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His next of kin has been notified.
The driver of the Freightliner was not injured in the crash.
Miller was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. Speed and alcohol were not factors in the crash.
