We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?
Thank you for supporting Radio Free Hub City!
According to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, Terry Lee Sines Jr. was driving southbound on Hopewell Road when he stopped in the middle of the roadway to inspect an animal that had been struck in the travel lane. While Sines was standing in the northbound lane, a Chevy Malibu approached from the northbound direction. The driver initially did not see Sines but attempted to swerve upon noticing him. Despite the effort, Sines was struck by the vehicle’s driver-side mirror.
Sines was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators closed the roadway until 11:00 PM while the Sheriff’s Office Crash Reconstruction Team conducted their investigation. No additional details have been released regarding the incident.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities have not disclosed further information at this time.
