Virginia State Trooper’s car struck in Clarke County
CLARKE COUNTY – Virginia State Trooper R.D. Riggs was assisting a disabled vehicle alongside the westbound lanes of Route 7, just west of Route 604 around 9:15 a.m., Wednesday morning when his vehicle was truck by a passerby.
The Trooper’s white, Chevrolet Impala had its emergency lights activated and was parked on the shoulder when a 2010 Ford Explorer came through a curve on Route 7, lost control and struck the rear of the Impala.
Trooper Riggs was attending to the disabled motorist at the time of the crash and was not injured.
The Ford’s 53-year-old driver from Cross Junction, Va., was not injured. He was charged with reckless driving.
Officials have warned motorists to stay off the roads today as the snow storm moves throughout the region. All major school systems, the Federal Government and many local governments closed for the day as well.
