HEAD-ON COLLISION KILLS PA. MOTORIST ON I-77

A 21-year-old Pennsylvania woman was killed Saturday morning on Interstate 77 near Wytheville, State Trooper J.D. Pickel said.

Dana Lynn Ditzler was traveling north about 11:50 a.m. when her car crossed the median, ran into oncoming traffic and hit a tractor-trailer head-on, killing her, Pickel said.

He said witnesses indicated she was not speeding, but may have fallen asleep. The driver of the truck, Larry Shifflett, also of Pennsylvania, was not injured.

No charges are expected to be filed.
