Fatal Car Crash in Reston

Reston Police District – A 23-year-old man from Maryland died Saturday morning after hitting a traffic signal pole. Officers responded to the area of Baron Cameron Avenue and Hunter Mill Road around 1:15 a.m. for the report of a single car crash. The driver Johnny Nony Souvannavong of Upper Marlboro, was the only person in the car. Detectives from our Crash Reconstruction Unit are investigating the crash and believe speed was a factor. The Subaru was traveling eastbound on Baron Cameron Avenue near Hunter Mill Road when a tire went off the roadway. The driver overcorrected and lost control of the vehicle, causing the vehicle to cross over eastbound lanes, the center median and westbound lanes before striking the traffic signal pole. Souvannavong was taken to the hospital and pronounced deceased.
