CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. -- One driver was killed in a multi-vehicle accident on the 6600 block of Hull Street Road (Route 360) and East Chippenham Parkway (Route 150) early Tuesday morning.
"A 2006 Honda Pilot was turning left from westbound Hull Street Road to head south on Chippenham Parkway when it was struck by a 2005 Jaguar traveling east on Hull Street Road," a Chesterfield Police spokesperson said. "As a result of this collision, the Jaguar struck a 2014 Subaru Outback and the Honda Pilot struck a 1992 Jeep Cherokee before coming to rest on its side. The driver of the Honda Pilot, William Colocho, 54, of Colonial Heights, was transported to an area hospital where he was pronounced deceased."
The driver of the Jeep Cherokee was transported a hospital with life-threatening injuries, while the driver of the Jaguar was transported to an area hospital with what appeared to be non-life threatening injuries.
