A road patrol unit successfully identified and stopped the vehicle, taking the driver into custody. The FBI and Secret Service are now investigating. The suspect’s name is known but not released. There were reports of a serious incident and a separate vehicle accident on the highway, though details about civilian casualties are scarce.
