In the early hours of October 25, Sergeant R. Lewis of the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office discovered a single-vehicle crash while on routine patrol in the 6600 block of Lawyers Road. The accident occurred around 1:00 a.m. as the driver, Michael Mitchell Jr., 49, of Louisa County, was traveling east on Lawyers Road when he reportedly lost control of his vehicle.

The incident is currently under investigation by the Sheriff’s Office Accident Reconstruction Team, which is working to determine the precise cause of the crash. Officials expressed their condolences in a public statement, saying, “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Mr. Mitchell during this difficult time.”

Mike Mitchell was lovingly known in the Lake Anna community as “DJ Mike.”
