Driver Charged in Fatal Collision Involving Pedestrian on East Broad Street in December

 

Following indictments by a grand jury, the driver in the fatal pedestrian collision on East Broad Street in December surrendered at the Richmond Justice Center today.

 

Harry McCray, 38, of Moseley, Virginia, has been charged with failure to stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk, careless driving and infliction of death on a vulnerable road user and driving while license is suspended or revoked. All three charges are misdemeanors. His booking photo is attached.

 

On December 27, 2025, at approximately 12:03p.m., officers were called to the intersection of East Broad and North 10th streets for the report of a vehicle colliding with a pedestrian.

 

Officers arrived and found an adult male, William Martin, 71, of Richmond, down and injured in the eastbound lanes of East Broad Street. The driver of the vehicle, McCray, remained at the scene. Martin was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries the following day.

 

The RPD Crash Team responded to the scene to investigate. They determined McCray made a left turn from North 10th Street onto the eastbound lanes of East Broad Street and struck Martin while Martin was in the crosswalk.
