Pennsylvania State Police say a 26 year old Columbia Borough man was killed in a crash on Route 283  in Dauphin County.  It happened at about 6:57 pm Wednesday in the westbound lane of Route 283 in Conewago Township.

Police say the victim, who was traveling at a home rate of speed, lost control of his 2005 Chevrolet Equinox and veered toward the right shoulder of the roadway. The SUV struck a 1999 Plymouth Voyager minivan traveling in the right lane, driven by Shirley Lehman. 58, of Quarryville, Lancaster County.  The impact spun the minivan around and it came to a rest on the right side of the westbound lane. Lehman was not injured.

The SUV upon impact rolled over approximately four times, ejecting the driver, who was not wearing a seatbelt.  The SUV also came to rest on the rightside of the roadway. The driver was pronounced dead at the scene by the Dauphin County Coroner’s Office.  Police are withholding the name of the victim pending notification of kin.
