Fatal Crash in the Clifton Area

Posted on by

Sully Police District – Police are investigating a fatal crash that occurred on Tuesday, October 15, in the 7200 block of Clifton Road. Around 6 p.m. Yumei Wang Barber, 37, of the Centreville area, was operating a 2012 Gabella moped north on Clifton Road. She entered a sharp turn and crossed the double-yellow line, into the path of a 2010 Ford pick-up truck operated by a 26-year-old woman. The moped struck the left rear tire-well of the truck. Barber was separated from her moped and landed in the northbound lanes of Clifton Road. A 42-year-old man operating a Range Rover SUV then ran off the road to avoid striking Barber and struck a sign.

Yumei Wang Barber was pronounced dead at the scene. Neither speed nor alcohol appear to be factors in the crash.
