Chester County, PA (November 15, 2023) – Five people were seriously injured Monday night when a vehicle crashed into a tractor-trailer in Chester County.
The scene unfolded on Route 100 at approximately 11:00 p.m. near the Wawa at the intersection of Pottstown Pike and Gordon Drive in Uwchlan Township, Pennsylvania. Initial reports from the scene indicated the crash happened after a police pursuit. However, police agencies contacted by Action News would not confirm there was a pursuit. The circumstances of this crash remain under investigation. Officials say five people were trapped in a crash after a Kia collided with a tractor-trailer along the roadway. Rescue crews had to extricate the occupants of the Kia, who were pinned inside the car. All five victims were transported to Paoli Hospital with serious injuries, police say, though no further details were released.
Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their loved ones in hopes of their complete recovery.
