WASHINGTON 鈥� A traffic stop along Interstate 66 near Rosslyn Tunnel nearly triggered a HAZMAT situation and resulted in two drugs arrests on Saturday, police said.
The incident happened at around 7 a.m., when Virginia State Police approached a disabled SUV on the side of the highway and noticed a suspicious liquid inside.
The substance was initially聽determined to be fuel, but traffic on westbound travel lanes were blocked as a HAZMAT crew investigated, according to Ashley Savage, a spokeswoman for Arlington police.
Police said two people were taken into custody after methamphetamine was found, Savage said.
The owner of the vehicle was released.
