A 16-year-old boy from Connellsville was killed and two others were taken to the hospital after a crash in Fayette County Saturday afternoon.

Pennsylvania state police said they were called to reports of an accident at the intersection of Indian Creek Valley Road and Calvary Church Road in Saltlick Township at around 2:58 p.m. Saturday.

State police say that a 19-year-old man was driving a 1993 Ford Mustang at a high rate of speed and the 16-year-old boy who died was a passenger in that car.

Police say they crashed into a 2016 GMC Sierra operated by a 28-year-old man.

Both the driver of the Mustang and the Sierra were taken to the hospital. The 16-year-old Mustang passenger was pronounced dead on scene.

The boy’s name has not been released. Charges are pending investigation.
