A single-vehicle crash on Route 11 claimed the life of a 62-year-old Augusta County resident on Tuesday evening.

Lennie G. Losh, 62, of Greenville, died at the scene.

A passenger, James W. Earhart, 74, suffered serious injuries.

Earhart and Losh were not wearing seatbelts, according to the Virginia State Police.
