CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Three people died after a pair crashes Monday in Goose Creek and North Charleston that authorities say are related.
The first crash happened at approximately 11:40 a.m. in the 200 block of Goose Creek Boulevard, according to Goose Creek Police Capt. James Brown. In that crash, the driver of a Ford F-150 was traveling southbound and rear-ended a Nissan Cube that was also traveling southbound, Brown said. The collision forced both the Nissan and the Ford across the median and into oncoming northbound traffic.
The Nissan rotated sideways and was hit by a northbound Chevrolet SUV. The driver of the Nissan died at the scene and EMS took the driver of the Chevrolet to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police say the driver of the Ford truck continued southbound in the northbound lane of Goose Creek Boulevard into North Charleston, where the roadway becomes Rivers Avenue.
