Prayer request: FUS student killed in car accident

Local Pittsburgh 4:

A sophomore college student was killed and six others were injured after a minivan carrying athletes from an Ohio college crashed into the woods off Route 22 in Washington County Tuesday afternoon.

The cross-country team from Franciscan University of Steubenville was heading back to school at about 4:40 p.m. when their van went off the road in Hanover Township, between the Post-Gazette Pavilion and the West Virginia state line.

Pennsylvania state police said the driver may have tried to avoid a tire on the road in the westbound lanes and lost control.
