Man Found Unconscious on Wilson Boulevard

A man suffering from life-threatening injuries was found lying unconscious on Wilson Boulevard early Sunday morning.

The man was found around 1:00 a.m. on the 5300 block of Wilson Boulevard, in Bluemont, suffering from significant head trauma, according to Arlington County Police spokesman Dustin Sternbeck. It’s unknown at this time whether the injury was the result of a hit-and-run, a fight or a fall. The man still had his wallet with him, so robbery is not considered a likely motive if he was, in fact, attacked.

The man was taken to a local hospital where surgery was performed to stop bleeding in his brain, Sternbeck said. His injuries are considered life-threatening.

The man is described as a 38-year-old Arlington resident. No other details were available about the incident.
