BRISTOL, Tenn. — One person has died and two were injured Friday as the result of a two-vehicle accident.
A Virginia school board has voted to restore the names of Confederate military leaders to a high school and an elementary school four years after the names were removed. Shenandoah County’s school board voted 5-1 early Friday to rename Mountain View High School as Stonewall Jackson High School and Honey Run Elementary as Ashby Lee Elementary.

Board members who voted Friday to restore the Confederate names say the previous school board ignored popular sentiment and due process when the names were stripped.
