A Navy master-at-arms is dead after a speeding gate runner struck a security vehicle Saturday night while entering Virginia Beach’s Joint Expeditionary Base Fort Story, Navy Region Mid-Atlantic spokeswoman Beth Baker said.

The Navy has not identified the driver or the deceased sailor tied to the 7:35 p.m. Saturday incident, but Baker told Navy Times both were men who were taken to Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital.

The victim died of his injuries there, according to a news release. The driver remains in the hospital.

The incident occurred at Fort Story’s Gate 8, off Atlantic Avenue. The gate is open 24 hours.

Baker said the civilian driver was operating a pick up truck and after the impact both men were “pinned inside their vehicles.”
