Fatal Crash Investigation – On April 10 at 6:07PM, officers responded to the 12200 block of Nutmeg Ct. in Woodbridge (22192) to investigate a crash involving a child. The initial investigation revealed the driver of a 2013 Mazda 3 was traveling eastbound on Nutmeg Ct. at a relatively low speed when the vehicle struck an 8-year-old girl who was sitting in the roadway.

Fire & rescue personnel removed the child from under the vehicle before she was transported to an area hospital with life-threatening injuries.
