One person is dead and two injured after a fiery early morning car accident in Southampton Township.

According to Pennsylvania State Police, four vehicles were involved in an accident shortly before 8 am on Friday morning. Ed Asbury, trooper for the Chambersburg police, said a car and van were traveling northbound on Mt. Rock Road when the van swerved to avoid a car that had slowed near the Possum Hollow intersection. The van then struck a southbound dump truck. All three vehicles caught fire in the collision.

Jeff Conner, a Franklin County Coroner, pronounced one person dead at the scene of the accident. The identity of the victim will not be released until the coroner’s office has been able to notify the family.

The driver of the car and dump truck were transported to a nearby hospital with minor injuries. Their names have also not been released. The driver of the car that was stopped at the Possum Hollow intersection was not injured according to Asbury.
