Police probe Wilkinsburg rollover crash
Two men were hospitalized early Tuesday after their car crashed and overturned in Wilkinsburg, authorities said.
Police who were dispatched at 12:12 a.m. to the 400 block of Ardmore Boulevard said they found a red Chevy Camaro overturned, with two men inside.
Paramedics took the driver, who police did not name, to an area hospital in critical condition, an Allegheny County Police spokesman said. The passenger, who also wasn’t named, was hospitalized in stable condition.
Police said the Camaro might have been speeding when the driver attempted to avoid deer on the road and struck an embankment, which flipped the car.
Anyone with information concerning this incident is asked to call the County Police Tip Line 1-833-ALL-TIPS. Callers can remain anonymous.
