ACCOMACK COUNTY, Va. — A man is dead after a tractor-trailer crash in Accomack County Thursday night.
The crash occurred around 7:30 p.m. on Route 13 when two vehicles, a 2010 Nissan Frontier pickup truck and a tractor-trailer collided, says Virginia State Police.
The initial investigations revealed that the driver of the pickup truck, 43-year-old Eduardo Marvin Simon-Gabriel, failed to yield as he was attempting to cross through the Route 13 and Daugherty Road intersection.
The vehicle then crashed into a 2002 Freightliner tractor-trailer and was struck on the passenger side of the vehicle.
The impact of the crash caused both vehicles to run off the road and partially eject Simon-Gabriel, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, from his pickup truck.
The driver of the tractor-trailer was uninjured.
Simon-Gabriel's next of kin has been notified.
