Crime/Court
Fatal accident on John Marshall Highway in Front Royal
On January 11, 2017 at approximately 6:30 p.m., a 911 call was received to report a pedestrian struck in the 800 block of John Marshall Highway. Upon officer’s arrival they observed a white male lying on the ground after being struck by an oncoming vehicle. The victim was identified as Jeffery Green, 56, who was transported to Warren Memorial Hospital and later transferred to Winchester Medical Center with internal injuries. Mr. Green later died as a result of his injuries.
The driver of the vehicle was identified as Jason Mallow, a 36-year-old resident of Front Royal. Mallow was driving west on John Marshall Highway when Green stepped off the sidewalk and into the travel lane of his vehicle. Green entered the roadway approximately 150 feet from the pedestrian crosswalk. Speed does not appear to be a factor in this incident.
This case is still under investigation and if anyone has further information, please contact MPO Steve Mauck or Officer David Leonard at (540) 635-2111.
