The Indiana County Coroner's office reported that a driver of a tractor-trailer from Allegheny County was killed when his truck ran into the rear of a flatbed trailer Tuesday on Route 22 in Burrell Township.

Coroner Jerry Overman said Perry W. Bonasso, 57, of Coraopolis, was pronounced dead at the scene of the 4:50 a.m. crash in the westbound lanes of Route 22 between Kettle Hollow and Palmerton roads.

PennDOT officials said the westbound lanes of Route 22 were closed until about 3 p.m. following the collision.

Overman said that a medical emergency may have led to the accident. Cause and manner of death are pending.

Toxicology tests will take several weeks to complete.
