WEST TOWNSHIP, Huntingdon County — After state police
troopers were dispatched to the scene of a one-vehicle crash Sunday afternoon,
it was discovered that three men were dead.
About 1:20 p.m., state police at Huntingdon were notified
that a Ford F-150 truck was observed on its roof partially submerged in Blue
Diamond Lake, just off Diamond Valley Road.
Police said a 58-year-old resident of Petersburg was
extricated from the vehicle and transported to J.C. Blair Hospital, where he was
pronounced dead.
After further investigation, troopers determined that
there were additional occupants of the vehicle, the police report stated.
Submersible video equipment was brought to the scene,
and shortly thereafter two more victims were discovered a short distance from
the vehicle under the ice. The two men, ages 69 and 33, were residents of
Huntingdon, the report said. Identities were held pending notification of the
next of kin.
