Pronounced Dead On Arrival At Hospital
A 34-year old Aliquippa man was killed almost instantly early Monday morning when the car he was -driving was struck by a tractor-trailer on Ohio River Boulevard at the Sewickley Bridge intersection.
The accident occurred at 3:20 a.m. and Timothy J. McCoy, Jr. of Mt. Vernon Drive, Aliquippa ' was pronounced dead on arrival at Sewickley Valley Hospital by Dr. Benjamin Lambiotte. McCoy had been-rushed to the hospital by Cole Ambulance.
The driver of the tractor-trailer was William Davis, 48, of 2206 30th Street, Beaver Falls. Davis was operating a truck owned by the B-P Motor Express, Inc. of Pittsburgh.
Police investigations show that the McCoy vehicle went through a flashing red signal from the bridge and that Davis, could not stop his truck in time to avoid the collision. (Boulevard traffic lanes at that time of day, operate on flashing yellow signals.)
The car McCoy was driving, according, to police charts, was exiting from the bridge and heading toward Broad Street. The truck that Davis was driving was headed east on the. Boulevard toward Pittsburgh.
According to police records, the weather was clear and dry and that both vehicles were apparently in normal condition prior to the collision..
Examination of the McCoy car showed severe damage to the entire driver’s side of the vehicle. Damage to the truck was limited to the front end area.
Because of the time of day of the accident, permission was granted by the County Coroner’s office to Sewickley Police to have the wrecked vehicles removed from the highway as soon as pictures could be taken. Sewickley Borough officials were also requested by the State Highway Department to clear thg roadway of debris and oil resulting from the collision.
