Fatal Crash Details
E. Lackowannock Twp. – Details about the Interstate 80 pileup that killed a Rochester New York man have been revealed by the Pennsylvania State Police Troopers investigating the incident. A press release on November 2nd states that the crash started at 5:45 on Wednesday morning when a tractor-trailer traveling in the eastbound lane began to skid on slush and snow and struck the median, the semi’s trailing unit partially blocked both lanes of I-80. A second commercial vehicle attempted to stop and avoid the wreck but slid into the trailer which caused a complete blockage of both lanes. A third semi joined the other two and was itself struck three times by passenger vehicles including a white SUV that contained the victim who was killed. A fourth commercial vehicle was the last to join, hitting one of the crashed passenger cars and then crushing and pinning the SUV. Mercer East End Volunteer Fire Department, some civilian witnesses and uninjured crash victims, and Mercer auto wrecking assisted the State Police at the scene.
