Both directions of I-95 were shut down at Golfair Boulevard after the truck was spun out by JSO.

Officers had the truck surrounded around 1 p.m. and some were in positions of concealment behind cruisers with long guns out.

According to multiple sources, a suspect was taken into custody following the chase that started on the Northside.

News4JAX is still trying to learn more about what happened.

A reader who was at the scene shortly after the truck crashed sent News4JAX a video.

The shutdown backed up traffic for miles on the interstate and it’s unclear how long it will be before the scene is cleared.

As of 1:15, traffic was backed up on I-95 northbound as far south as W Beaver Street.
