Virginia State Police say a wrong-way driver triggered a fatal crash on Interstate 295 in Hanover County late last night.
Trooper T.M. Howard said the crash occurred in I-295's northbound lanes just south of the Pole Green Road interchange at 11:40 p.m.
Howard said William E. Goode Jr., 51, of Norfolk was driving northbound when his 1992 Cadillac sedan was struck by a southbound 1999 Dodge pickup truck driven by Nickolas R. Sickal, 19, of Barhamsville.
Goode was declared dead at the scene; Sickal was taken to VCU Medical Center with injuries that Howard said were serious but not life-threatening.
Also transported to VCU with serious but not life-threatening injuries was Goode's 8-year-old daughter, Howard said.
State police are continuing their investigation, and charges are pending, Howard said.
