Two people were killed in separate crashes in less than a 12-hour period this weekend on Washington County roads.
Angie Givens, 26, no address available, died at a Pittsburgh hospital after a two-vehicle crash just before 3 p.m. Saturday at Malden Road and East Malden Drive in California. Shawn Paul Kroesen, 24, of McDonald, was pronounced dead at Canonsburg Hospital Sunday morning about an hour after the car in which he was a passenger crashed on Chartiers Run Road, Chartiers Township.
Givens was one of six people in the two vehicles who were injured in the crash, California police said. One of the vehicles involved flipped onto its side. Givens was flown to Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh where she was pronounced dead at 6:58 p.m.
California police have not released additional information on the crash. On Saturday, police said they would not release the names of the others involved in the crash until all families have been notified.
Assisting at the scene were California firefighters and other neighboring fire departments as well as Brownsville Ambulance Service and other services.
Kroesen was a passenger in a Honda Civic driven by Kevin Charles Farrell, 28, of Cecil. Chartiers police said Farrell was driving north in the 400 block of Chartiers Run south of Ridge Avenue about 12:13 a.m. Sunday when the car went off the side of the road, hitting an embankment before hitting a tree. The car then crossed over the southbound lane, coming to rest in a field off the side of the road.
Kroesen was ejected from the car. He was taken to the hospital by Canonsburg Ambulance, where he later died. Police said Farrell was not injured.
Assisting at the scene were Chartiers firefighters. Police said they are continuing their investigation into the crash.
Givens and Kroesen are the seventh and eighth people to die on county roads this year.
