[02-09-2025] – One Fatality in Four-Vehicle Crash Involving Police SUV in Susquehanna Township

Susquehanna Twp, PA – A tragic four-vehicle accident, which included a police SUV, led to one death on Saturday afternoon in Dauphin County, as reported by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT). The incident transpired around 12:30 p.m. at the intersection of Walnut Street/Route 22 and North 38th Street in Susquehanna Township.

The crash involved a sedan, a blue pickup truck, a Susquehanna Township police SUV, and another vehicle that has not been identified. The impact of the collision was catastrophic, completely severing the front end of the police SUV from the rest of the vehicle. Following the accident, debris was scattered across the road—with significant pieces, including two large tires and twisted metal, landing approximately 50 feet away in front of a nearby Sunoco gas station.

Emergency responders swiftly arrived on the scene, including the Pennsylvania State Police and a specialized accident reconstruction team, to investigate the details surrounding this serious incident. As the investigation is ongoing, the identity of the individual who lost their life has not been disclosed.

In the aftermath of the crash, Walnut Street was closed for several hours to facilitate cleanup operations and ensure a thorough investigation could take place. The roadway has since been reopened to the public.

Our heartfelt condolences are extended to the family and friends of the person who tragically lost their life in this incident. We also keep in our thoughts everyone impacted by this unfortunate collision.
