Three people dead following vehicle crash in South Carolina

SOUTH CAROLINA — A wrong-way crash involving three vehicles on Interstate 85 early Sunday morning left at least three people dead, according to the South Carolina Highway Patrol.

Troopers say the crash occurred around 12:15 a.m. near mile marker 75. A Honda sedan was traveling south in the northbound lanes when it collided head-on with a Toyota sedan. The Honda then struck a Ford Expedition.

The driver of the Honda was pronounced dead at the scene. Both the driver and a passenger in the Toyota also died at the scene, authorities confirmed.

The Ford Expedition was carrying six people—one driver and five passengers. All survived and did not suffer serious injuries, according to troopers.

The northbound lanes of I-85 near the crash site were temporarily closed for investigation and cleanup but have since reopened.

The incident remains under investigation by the South Carolina Highway Patrol.
