PENNSYLVANIA — A man died following a multi-vehicle crash early Wednesday morning on Interstate 83 in York County, according to the York County Coroner’s Office.
The crash occurred around 4:50 a.m. on I-83 between the Maryland state line and Exit 4 in Shrewsbury Township, county dispatchers said. Authorities reported the crash involved a tractor-trailer and an SUV.
York County Coroner Tania Zech said her office was dispatched around 7:50 a.m. to WellSpan York Hospital after receiving a report that a man had died as a result of the crash on southbound I-83 near mile marker 2.
The identity of the man, including his name, age, and hometown, has not been released pending notification of his relatives, according to the coroner’s office.
The Shrewsbury Volunteer Fire Company said the crash prompted the closure of both the northbound and southbound lanes of I-83 for a period of time. All lanes have since reopened. A medical helicopter was also dispatched to the scene.
