Do you know about what time.  I know the fire dept was going up and down the Fletcher Rd the other night, but the last I heard, they had not found it.

Fairfax Fire was handling another call when we were alerted to a single vehicle crash at the intersection of Swamp/Fletcher.  One vehicle on its side with patient entrapped.  Fairfax Fire performed the extrication and turned patient over to Fairfax Rescue to treatment.

Was speed a contributing factor to the accident?

Dave great question; that would need to be referred to Franklin County Sheriffs office for an answer as root cause determination for motor vehicle accidents is out of scope for the fire department.
