Cleveland Lloyd Antonio Mitchell, 54, of Durham, N.C., was driving in the early hours of the morning with his children, ages 18 and 21, when their vehicle was hit by another vehicle, which was driven by a drunk driver, Delvin L. Ridgle. As a result, Lloyd Antonio Mitchell died at the scene.

According to Sgt. F.L. Tyler of Virginia State Police "Delvin L. Ridgle, 27, a sergeant with the U.S. Army, stationed at Ft. Eustis, was traveling northbound on I-95 at a high rate of speed about 3:15 a.m." The drunk driver, Mr. Ridgele, had no injuries. He is currently being held in jail with bond. The decedent's children were not injured. It appears that not only speed by alcohol were factors in the incident.
