One person was injured during a rollover accident Monday morning, in Page County. The Sheriff’s Office reports 27-year old Christy Dawn Gordon, of Essex, was transported to the Shenandoah Memorial Hospital by Essex Fire and Rescue, after the pickup she was a passenger in went out of control and rolled over and came to rest on its top. The woman  was wearing her seat belt during the accident, which happened at around 9:35-a.m. on Highway 48.

Officials say the 1998 Chevy pickup, driven by 33-year old Nathan Rick Gordon, of Essex, was traveling south on the highway and passed a slower moving, blue van. Christy Gordon said she told Nathan that the van was gaining on their pickup. He responded by reportedly having “tapped” the brakes on his truck and pulled the vehicle to the side, where it went out of control on the gravel shoulder.

The vehicle slid into the ditch and rolled. The blue van, meanwhile, continued past the crash without stopping. An investigation determined the pickup left 155-feet of skid marks on the road before it entered the shoulder and left the road. There was no contact made with the other vehicle.

Damage from the crash amounted to $3,500. No citations were issued.
