Troopers with the South Carolina Highway Patrol have cited a Charleston County deputy for a crash that killed two people earlier this year.
The Charleston County Sheriff’s Office said on Wednesday that troopers cited Deputy Alan Kendall for driving too fast for conditions for the Jan. 3 collision that killed 77-year-old Sandra Eisner and 85-year-old Sonny Brower.
Kendall is currently on paid administrative duty pending the outcome of the sheriff’s office internal affairs investigation.
According to the sheriff’s office, Kendall was driving northbound on Highway 17N while responding to a physical disturbance service call.

“Deputy Kendall sustained non-life threatening injuries,” CCSO officials said.
