A head-on collision on Route 219 in Adams Township, has left one woman dead. The accident involved three vehicles and several people were injured.
Police said a pick-up truck driven by an intoxicated driver caused the crash. Eye witnesses reported that the pick-up truck stopped on the highway, turned around and began driving in the wrong direction. The pick-up truck struck the victim and her passenger head-on. The victim was then struck by a Freightliner truck who was not able to stop in time to avoid the accident.
