Snow caused a sixty vehicle Schuylkill County whiteout MVC, or motor vehicle collision, which is reported to have included three confirmed fatalities.
Dr. David J. Moylan, the county coroner for Schuylkill County, cautioned the death toll “could run higher” because the search of the scene hadn’t yet been completed because of burning vehicles.
The fiery crash occurred on Interstate 81 at about 10:30 AM near Minersville, which is approximately one hundred miles northwest of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Reports indicate two dozen were transported to local hospitals.
