Victims Have Been Identified In Three Separate Fatal Accidents In The CSRA
Victims have been identified in two deadly accidents in Richmond County on Friday and one in Aiken County on Saturday.
Richmond County Coroner Mark Bowen says 74-year-old Wayne Roberts of Hephzibah died Friday after a rollover accident in a parking lot in the 3100 block of Peach Orchard Road. Authorities said Roberts lost control of the vehicle Friday morning and was taken to Wellstar MCG where he died a short time later.
A few hours later, Bowen was called to the 5100 block of Henderson Road where 68-year-old Josiah Cadle of Hephzibah was killed in a single vehicle accident. Bowen said Cadle’s vehicle veered off the road and struck a tree. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Victims Included An Aiken Man
Toxicology tests are pending after an Aiken man was killed in a weekend traffic accident.
It happened shortly before 2:00 a.m. Saturday on Rushton Road near Mosely Road.
The South Carolina Highway Patrol says 22-year-old John Boulware was headed East on Rushton Road when his pickup left the road and struck a tree.
Boulware was pronounced dead an hour later at the scene.
The Patrol and the Aiken County Coroner’s Office continue to investigate the accident.
