NORTHAMPTON COUNTY, Va. — Virginia State Police said a person died after a vehicle crash occurred in Northampton County Wednesday morning.
Two vehicles were involved in a crash on Route 13 at Townsend Drive around 5:15 a.m. Wednesday.
Police said 49-year-old Kevin Turner was on his moped heading south on Route 13 when he lost control.
Turner ran off the roadway and overcorrected. That's when he was thrown from the moped and landed in the median. Police said he was not wearing a helmet and died on impact.
The moped was laying in the road when it was then hit by a semi, a passenger vehicle, and then a pickup truck.
After the pickup truck hit the moped, it caught fire. However, no other injuries were reported.
State police do not know if alcohol is a contributing factor to the crash.
Officers said the road was closed to traffic -- all of the northbound and southbound lanes were been shut down.
The Virginia Department of Transportation placed a detour to redirect traffic.
