Virginia Beach car wreck kills one and injures three others


Posted on Jul 27, 2010

A single-vehicle car crash in Virginia Beach has claimed the life of one person and left three other people with serious injuries.  The accident happened in the 1000 block of General Booth Blvd when a car hit two trees and overturned.

 

There were four people in the car, a 1991 Toyota Camry, when the accident happened.  The man who was killed, Timothy Paul Pritchard, 25, of Maize Court in Virginia Beach, was not wearing a seat belt when the accident happened.  He died later at the hospital.

 

When Virginia Beach police arrived on the scene, one person had gotten out of the car but the other three occupants were still trapped inside.  The names of the surviving passengers have not been released.  All the vehicle occupants were taken to the hospital to be treated.

 

The driver of the car sustained non-life threatening injuries, the front seat passenger sustained life-threatening injuries, and the other rear passenger has serious injuries.  The cause of the wreck is unknown and is still under investigation.

 

Single vehicle crashes can be very serious if the vehicle runs off the road, and serious injuries are not uncommon if vehicle occupants are not wearing seat belts.
