SLIPPERY ROCK TWP, Lawrence County — The car passenger who died in a crash with a tractor-trailer on Route 422 this morning is a 59-year-old woman from Shenango Township in Lawrence County.

The car crossed into the opposing lane and was struck on the passenger side by the tractor-trailer, authorities said.

The driver of the car, a man whose name was not available, was flown by medical helicopter to an unknown hospital.

Rescuers said the road was slush-covered.
