Coroner summoned to location following pedestrian struck by car on bustling Washington County street

The Washington County coroner was summoned to the site of a collision between a pedestrian and a vehicle on a busy road. Sky 4, the only news chopper in Pittsburgh, captured the scene at the interchange of Routes 22 and 576, where various emergency responders and a medical helicopter were present. It appeared that a tractor-trailer and a vehicle were involved in the incident. Pennsylvania State Police confirmed that a pedestrian was struck by a vehicle, but further details were not provided. The Washington County Coroner's Office verified that a team was en route to the crash location. Additionally, an individual was observed being taken into police custody in the vicinity. The Pennsylvania Turnpike announced on their alerts page that by 6:30 p.m., the area had been cleared and the ramp from US-22 to I-576 had reopened, allowing all lanes to resume normal traffic flow.
