HERNDON, Va. -- A man died after a bizarre car accident in Fairfax County.
Police were called to the intersection of Powells Tavern Place and Dranesville Road in Herndon late Wednesday night by a neighbor who heard a crash.
But when officers arrived they couldn't find anything.
Thursday morning police found a 1997 Mazda in the back yard of a nearby home.
Joseph Taylor, 31, of Herndon, was dead in the vehicle.
Investigators believe the driver lost control of the car on Dranesville Road, crossed the median, hit a curb, rolled through two fences and then hit a house.
The next NBC Washington PNC Bank Community Shred is scheduled for June 16, 2012.
