https://internewsgroup.com/2024/07/1-worker-dead-2-injured-in-freak-carwash-accident/
A tragic accident at the Flagship Carwash in Fairfax, Virginia left one employee dead and two others injured on Saturday morning, June 29, 2024. Just before 11 a.m., a customer’s vehicle struck another car in the lot before hitting a group of three employees, according to the City of Fairfax Police Department.
The victim, identified as 62-year-old Martha Clemencia Nguyen of Fairfax, was transported to Fairfax Hospital, where she later died from her injuries. The other two employees, whose injuries are not life-threatening, were treated at the same hospital.
Witnesses reported the chaotic scene as first responders arrived quickly to provide aid. One bystander recalled, “It all happened so fast. One minute, they were working, and the next, there was chaos.”
Nguyen, a dedicated worker at the carwash, was well-known in the community for her warm personality and diligent work ethic. Her loss has been deeply felt among her colleagues and customers.
