Brief: Pedestrian Killed on Richmond Highway

Police are investigating a fatal pedestrian crash that occurred around 1:50 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 18. A 64-year-old man was operating a 2002 Kenworth dump truck northbound in the right lane of Richmond Highway just south of Huntington Avenue. A man walked into the unlit roadway, crossing left to right and walked into the path of the oncoming dump truck. The driver took evasive action but was unable to avoid striking the man.

The driver stopped and called police. The pedestrian, Michael Ingram, 27, of Washington, D.C., was transported to Inova Fairfax Hospital and pronounced dead. Speed and alcohol are not a factor for the driver. The investigation is ongoing.
