Traffic was backed up on both sides of the Bay Bridge this afternoon in the aftermath of a three-vehicle crash that sent a tractor-trailer truck hurtling into the waters of the Chesapeake early this morning

The crash, shortly before 4 a.m., left the truck's driver dead and two people from a passenger vehicle hospitalized with injuries, officials said.

Mountaire Farms, a poultry processing company based in Selbyville, Del., owns the truck, according to company spokesman Roger Marino. He said he did not know the driver's name or what the truck was hauling.

"It is a tragic loss for the Mountaire family, because it is a close-knit company. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family," he said. "We will be assisting the authorities as we wait for more information."
