HAMPTON, Va. — Virginia authorities say 15 people, including 11 riding in a van carrying Hampton University's track team, have been injured in an accident on Interstate 64.

Virginia State Police say none of the injuries are considered life threatening. Police say the van was involved in a six-vehicle chain-reaction accident Saturday in Virginia's Peninsula region.

Sgt. Scott Edelman says three drivers were charged with driving offenses after the late-morning accident near Hampton.

A Hampton University spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
