A driver submitted this video to our tip line ([email protected]) showing a near collision on Mountain View Road, near Shelton Shop Road, after 6 p.m. Sunday, May 8.

According to the driver who submitted the video, an oncoming car lost control of his sedan on the two-lane road, drove into a ditch, overcorrected, and crossed into oncoming traffic.


Initially, first responders thought a pedestrian had been struck, but it wasn’t long before they learned a man had been ejected from a car. The unidentified man was taken to Mary Washington Hospital, where he was expected to survive, said Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller.

There were no other cars involved, and it’s unclear what led to the crash. The incident remains under investigation, police said.


At 3:39 a.m., Sunday, May 8, fire and rescue units were dispatched to the 15000 block of Lee Highway (Route 29), near the Wegmans grocery store at the Stonewall Shops, for a reported house fire by a passerby.

Crews arrived to find a barn fully involved. Fire crews learned there were animals inside but could not be saved due to the volume of fire.
