SoVaNow.com / July 02, 2009
A 20 year old South Boston woman was charged with driving under the influence and with reckless driving - failure to maintain control following a single vehicle crash at 11 p.m. on Saturday night, June 27. Ashley R. Lewis was the driver of a 2001 Pontiac Gran Prix which veered off the left side of State Route 626, about five-tenths mile north of its intersection with State Route 360. The car continued on, striking a mailbox and several trees before coming to a halt.

Investigating Virginia Sate Trooper D. H. Hess estimated damages to the car at $5,000, and Lewis was injured and transported for treatment.

Earlier on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. a 63 year old South Boston man, Bernice G.
