YORK COUNTY, PA. (THECOUNT) — Ronald Orendi of Mechanicsburg, Pa, has been identified as the victim killed following a three-vehicle crash Thursday morning on I-83 NB near mile marker 34 in York County.
Orendi, 63, was operating a cargo van on I-83 Thursday when his vehicle was rear-ended by a big-rig that failed to yield to slower traffic.
A preliminary investigation determined that a semi trailer carrying a full-size trailer came to a stop due to traffic, Police say. The cargo van also stopped behind that vehicle.
According to police, a semi-truck then failed to stop and struck the rear of the cargo van, sandwiching it between the 18-wheelers.
Orendi was entrapped in his vehicle.
He was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the count coroner.
