Crash reconstruction detectives have identified the victims involved in the June 8 crash on Furnace Road as teenage boys. A preliminary investigation has determined a Nissan Maxima, driven by an unlicensed 14-year-old from Prince William County, was southbound on Lorton Road when he lost control and left the roadway. The car struck a tree and the impact caused the vehicle to flip before coming to rest on its driver side door. The four passengers, all 15, and also from Prince William County, were taken to the hospital with what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries. Alcohol does not appear to be a factor; however, detectives continue to investigate the crash to determine if speed was. No charges have been placed at this time. Once the investigation is complete, the case will be brought to the Commonwealth Attorney’s Office to determine if any charges will be placed.
Two of the four victims in the June 8 crash have been released from the hospital after being treated for non-life threatening injuries. The other two teenage boys remain in the hospital in with non-life threatening injuries.
