A strong fall storm took its toll on Suffolk County, Va. Along with 35 auto accidents in a little over 24 hours, the storm downed power lines and flooded roads across the state. Little Fork Road at the state line was closed for some time and though other low lying roadways were not closed parks of North Main Street and Constance road did experience some minor flooding.
Of the 35 accidents twenty resulted in vehicle damage only and fifteen caused injuries that ranged from mild to mortal. The deadly accident is still under investigation by the Commonwealth's Attorney and no charges have yet been filed.
Another serious accident occurred on Holland Road. A Suffolk News-Herald paper carrier was turning left onto Holland when she was struck by a Franklin man. The carrier was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital for serious injuries related to the crash.
Police also responded to several tress and power lines that had fallen and were blocking roadways.
The staff and attorneys at Tavss Fletcher would like to send our sincere condolences to the family of the fatal accident victim.
