Stafford County, Va. — The driver of a tour bus involved in a fatal multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 95 has been arrested and is being held without bond, according to Stafford County Commonwealth’s Attorney Eric Olsen.

In a May 30 press release, Olsen said his office authorized Virginia State Police to obtain felony warrants related to the May 29 crash, which killed five people and seriously injured others.

The crash occurred on I-95 southbound in Stafford County and involved multiple vehicles. According to Olsen, evidence gathered since the crash has established that a tour bus traveling southbound at a high rate of speed struck one or more vehicles that were moving slowly through a work zone, causing a chain-reaction crash involving at least eight vehicles.

“Even as the Virginia State Police continues to conduct a complex investigation, I have determined that probable cause presently exists to establish that the driver of the tour bus caused this crash and, at the time of the crash, he was driving in a criminally negligent manner,” Olsen said in the release.

Felony warrants for two counts of involuntary manslaughter have been obtained and served on the driver, Jing Sheng Dong, 48, of Staten Island, N.Y., according to the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office. Each count of involuntary manslaughter carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

Dong suffered injuries in the crash and was arrested Saturday by Virginia State Police. He was served with the felony warrants in the hospital, according to Olsen.

A magistrate has determined that Dong will be held without bond pending his appearance in court. Olsen said Dong remains hospitalized but is in custody.

Dong’s first court appearance will take place after he is released from the hospital.

The investigation remains ongoing.
