Car crash at the intersection of Winchester Road and Guard Hill Road in Front Royal
Early this morning at 8:15am on November 26, 2019, officers from the Front Royal Police Department were dispatched to the intersection of Winchester Road and Guard Hill Road for a report of a motor vehicle crash. As a result of the crash, 28-year-old Jake Hunter Thomasson suffered serious injuries and was subsequently airlifted from the scene to INOVA Fairfax. At this time, he is in stable but critical condition.
Thomasson was driving a Chevy S-10 pickup truck southbound on Winchester Road. He veered off the road and struck a box truck that was sitting on Guard Hill Road waiting to turn left.

The incident is still under investigation at this time. Front Royal Police were assisted by the Warren County Department of Fire and Rescue as well as the Virginia State Police on the scene.
