SUSSEX COUNTY, Va. -- State police are investigating a crash in Sussex County that killed a 55-year-old Chester man Saturday night.
Sgt. Michelle Anaya with Virginia State Police said troopers were called to Route 301, north of South Halifax Road, to investigate a "vehicle/pedestrian" wreck just after 10:30 p.m.
"Jeffery J. Hinchey, a pedestrian, was pushing his bicycle southbound, in the northbound lanes of Route 301, when a 2007 Honda, traveling in the northbound lanes, struck Hinchey," Anaya said.
Hinchey, of the 12000 block of Quay Street in Chester, died of his injuries at the scene, officials said.
