FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) — The Fairfax County Police Department is continuing to investigate a deadly crash involving a pedestrian in the Falls Church area of the county.

Around 6 a.m. on Sunday, Dec. 18, officers were called to the intersection of Arlington Boulevard and Westmoreland Road for a reported vehicle crash.

After a preliminary investigation, detectives from the Fairfax Crash Reconstruction Unit determined that a pedestrian — identified as 76-year-old Tomas Machado of Falls Church — was attempting to cross Arlington Boulevard when he was struck by a 2003 Honda Accord traveling eastbound.

After hitting Machado, the driver of the Honda continued driving eastbound on Arlington Boulevard, driving over two medians as well as hitting multiple signs and a pole before coming to a stop, according to police.
