Four injured in I-70 crash
Four people were injured in a two-vehicle crash Sunday night on Interstate 70 in Donegal Township, state police said. A vehicle in which three 18-year-old men and a 19-year-old woman, all from West Virginia, were riding attempted to pass another vehicle driven by a 60-year-old man before it reached a merge point for a construction zone at about 9:30 p.m. when it hit the vehicle’s side.
The vehicle carrying the four people then went off the road, across the on-ramp at the West Alexander interchange, hit a guardrail and went over an embankment and overturned. A state police news release did not identify those involved.
The driver was taken to UPMC Presbyterian hospital in Pittsburgh by helicopter. The other three passengers were taken to Wheeling (W.Va.) Hospital. The driver of the other vehicle was not injured.
