Two people were killed in separate car accidents in West Virginia last week.
The first accident occurred around noon on the northbound lanes of Interstate 79. The car ran off of the roadway onto the median before hitting a culvert and returning back to the roadway and rolling multiple times.
A crash later that same evening also occurred and took the life of a 57-year-old man. The accident occurred as a 39-year-old woman was driving the opposite direction as the man down the roadway when she crossed the center line and struck the man’s vehicle. This accident remains under investigation at this time.

Two people were injured in car accident after they ran into an arrow board on the West Virginia Turnpike.
The two people were heading north on the Turnpike in a Dodge Intrepid when they struck a lighted arrow board that was sitting on the side of the roadway near the 88-mile marker. The board was placed on the side of the road to alert drivers that the left lane was closed for construction crews to work and repair a bridge.
After the vehicle struck the board, it caught on fire. Both people were able to get out of the car and were transported to the hospital where they were treated and released.
