A fatal accident occurred at 6:30 this morning when a 60-year-old woman struck a deer at mile marker 248 at Harrisonburg. Her vehicle was then hit from behind by a tractor-trailer, causing the tractor-trailer to flip over and block the southbound lanes for hours. As of 12:30 p.m., the southbound side of I-81 was still closed. The woman was killed in the accident.
I-81 is closed between Exit 251 and 247. Traffic is being diverted at Exit 251 with reentry at Exit 243.
