SEWICKLEY TOWNSHIP (KDKA) -- A man is dead following a violent one-vehicle crash Saturday night in Westmoreland County.
The victim has not yet been identified; however, state police say he was a 28-year-old man from Monongahela. He was ejected from the 1987 Ford Mustang and pronounced dead at the scene.
Officials report that the accident happened around 11 p.m. on Mars Hill Road near Wolfe Lane in Sewickley Township.
