State Police ID Guard soldiers seriously hurt in convoy ****** on Route 460 in Dinwiddie

Virginia State Police say the Humvee that crashed June 7 on U.S. Route 460 in western Dinwiddie County was part of a Virginia National Guard unit’s convoy en route to Fort Barfoot for training.

Two soldiers from the unit – 24-year-old Emmanuel Andre Roberts of Woodbridge and 27-year-old Robert Moran of Staunton – were seriously injured in the ******, which happened shortly after 3 p.m. on Route 460 between the Ford and Wilsons areas of Dinwiddie. The Humvee was pulling a single-axle trailer when it ran off the highway and overturned several times.

State Police Sgt. Jessica Shehan said the ****** was caused by an issue with the hitch to the trailer. Roberts was driving, and Moran was in the front seat.

Both were wearing seatbelts, Shehan said, but the impact of the ****** still threw them from the vehicle.

The Guard personnel were attached to the 116th Infantry regiment of the Delta Company’s 3rd Battalion based in Warrenton. The convoy was on its way to Fort Barfoot, in Nottoway County near Blackstone and the headquarters for the Virginia National Guard for three weeks of training.

The speed limit on Route 460 in Dinwiddie is mostly 55 mph in undeveloped areas, but it can reduce to 45-50 mph near certain intersections.

Under U.S. Department of Transportation laws, a convoy travelling on a highway such as Route 460 must maintain the minimum speed limit or 40 mph if there is no posted limit. Shehan said the convoy was not speeding at the time of the ******, which is still under investigation.
