Victims of Evergreen Mills Crash Identified As Leesburg Twins

The men were among five who died on Loudoun roads during the past weekend.

The two men who died after their car struck a tree of Evergreen Mills Road and caught fire early Sunday morning have been identified by the Virginia State Police as Aaron W. Henry and Vincent B. Henry, 26-year-old twins from Leesburg.

State Police Trooper J.W. Foutz Jr. was dispatched to the scene, near Reservoir Road at 1:38 a.m. Sunday. According to a VSP report, a 1994 Ford Explorer occupied by the Henrys was traveling north along Evergreen Mills when it crossed the centerline, left the roadway to the left and slid into a tree. The impact caused the vehicle to catch fire, rapidly engulfing it in flames, according to the report. Both men died at the scene. 

Speed is believed to have been a factor in the crash, according to the report, but it remains under investigation.
