Trooper Who Prevented Head-On Crash
to be Honored at State Police Academy
A state trooper who helped prevent a head-on crash on Route 6 on Christmas Eve by putting his own life in danger is one of several troopers who will be honored during a ceremony Friday at the State Police Academy in Hershey.
A drunk driver was speeding eastbound in the westbound lanes of Route 6 near Irvine when Trooper Andrew Goss passed the front car in a line of westbound motorists and blocked both lanes of traffic with his cruiser.
The truck driven by 27-year-old Nash Edward Harvey of Titusville crashed into the passenger side of the cruiser, then hit the front car in line.
Goss simply said there was no other decision to make.
On Monday, Harvey pleaded guilty in Warren County Court to DUI, having a blood alcohol content more than twice the legal limit and four counts of recklessly endangering another person.
