One person was killed in a four-vehicle crash Wednesday evening at the intersection of Tylersville Road and Princeton-Glendale Road in West Chester Township. According to the West Chester Police Department, the crash happened around 6:53 p.m. at the intersection of State Route 747 and Tylersville Road. Investigators say a Ford Maverick traveling southbound on Princeton-Glendale Road attempted to turn left onto eastbound Tylersville Road and failed to yield to an oncoming Jeep Cherokee traveling northbound through the intersection. Police say the Jeep struck the passenger side of the pickup truck. The impact caused the Jeep to rotate and hit a Butler County utility vehicle that was stopped in a right-turn lane. The pickup truck was then pushed into two other stopped vehicles. The driver of the Ford pickup, identified as 68-year-old Timothy Baltzell of West Chester, was taken to UC West Chester Hospital where he was pronounced dead. The driver of the Jeep, a 36-year-old man from Middletown, suffered minor injuries. Occupants in the other vehicles were not seriously hurt. The intersection remained closed for more than two hours while West Chester Police investigated the crash.
