On June 24, the Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed the driver killed in a single-vehicle crash in the 3700 block of Graham Park Road in Triangle on June 11 is Timothy Dewaine Gunn, 54, of Dumfries.
The investigation revealed that a 2007 Toyota Camry driver was traveling westbound on Graham Park Road at 3:24 a.m. when the driver lost control of the vehicle, crossing the double yellow line and striking a tree. The car then caught fire and became fully engulfed in flames.
The driver of a 2016 Ford Focus was traveling westbound on Old Bridge Road, just past Cape Cod Court, when the vehicle left the roadway and drove onto the sidewalk where the vehicle then struck a pedestrian who was walking his dog.
The vehicle continued traveling before it struck a communications box and a power pole, causing the pole to snap and fall into the roadway. Officers and bystanders provided first aid to the pedestrian until rescue personnel arrived.
As part of the commemoration, figures who were part of the VRE’s past have been invited to share brief comments on how lessons learned in launching the commuter rail service can be applied to pandemic-related ridership recovery efforts.
There is also an expected announcement pertaining to VRE’s financial support of Transforming Rail in Virginia that will further document the support for the commonwealth’s commitment to expanding VRE service over the next decade. Transforming Rail in Virginia came as a result of an agreement between the commonwealth and CSX Transportation which seeks to improve rail transit in Virginia.
