A man suffered critical injuries when he fell while riding a motorized scooter in Reston yesterday (Sunday) afternoon, police say.
The Fairfax County Police Department said the man fell while riding a scooter at Town Center Drive and Bowman Towne Drive. He was taken to the hospital with injuries considered life-threatening.
According to scanner traffic on Open MHz, the crash occurred around 2:36 p.m. An initial dispatch suggested that a bicyclist was involved, but a responding officer quickly clarified that it “looked like a crash with scooter going at high speed.”
An FCPD spokesperson confirmed that no other vehicle was involved in the crash.
“The circumstances of what caused the crash are currently under investigation by our Crash Reconstruction Unit detectives,” the spokesperson wrote in a statement.
Town Center Drive was closed for about two hours yesterday, as crash reconstruction unit detectives worked on the scene.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
Plus, when you buy a gift certificate from Well-Paid Maids, you’re supporting a living-wage cleaning company. That means cleaners get paid a starting wage of $24 an hour and get access to benefits, like 24 days of PTO and health insurance.
