”The only explanation for the death of Jason Sedlak is that the defendant was drinking and driving,“ she said. ”There was nothing wrong with the road. If the road was so inherently dangerous it would be closed.“
Pittsburgh police say a man was killed early this morning in a one-vehicle wreck along Mooney Road in Hays.
Homicide detectives and police crash experts were investigating.
Residents of the area reported that the wreck occurred at 1:13 a.m. Saturday in the 800 block of Mooney Road. Officers responding to the 911 call said they found an SUV overturned with a man inside it.
That person, Jason Sedlak, 25, of Munhall, died at the scene, police said. The Allegheny County medical examiner's office was conducting an autopsy today to determine an exact cause.
A witness told the officers that he heard a loud crash and went outside and saw the driver still inside the vehicle and helped him out. Police said the 32-year-old man then ran into nearby woods and disappeared.
Officers with dogs searched the area and found the man sitting in the woods, police said in a news release this morning. His identity was not released.
That man was taken to a hospital for treatment. Police said his vehicle struck a parked car before overturning and that alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
Police said they would continue their investigation before deciding whether to file charges.
