In Case You Were in the Area Sunday Night

The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office is searching for the driver involved in a single vehicle crash that took the life of an Ashburn man Sunday night.

The victim, Arturo Rivera, 35, was a passenger in a 2004 Toyota Sienna that was being operated by an unknown driver. The crash occurred on Loudoun County Parkway near Hillsboro Hunt Drive and was discovered by a motorist shortly after 10 PM.

The victim, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle. He lost his life at the scene.
