HANOVER COUNTY, Va. -- A 25-year-old man was killed in a wreck early Sunday morning in rural Hanover County, according to authorities.
Deputies with the Hanover County Sheriff’s Office were called to a single-vehicle crash in the 17400 block of Hewlett Road in Beaverdam at 1:30 a.m.
"A 2003 Ford pickup was traveling northbound on Hewlett Road when it ran off the right side of the roadway into a curve," Capt. Kirk Shaffier said.

Shaffier said the driver, Hunter Vernon Cran of Bumpass, was pronounced deceased at the scene.
No one else was in the pickup, Shaffier said.
