Woman charged in death of 2 Pa. state troopers, pedestrian on I-95 due in court for preliminary hearing
PHILADELPHIA - The young driver charged in the death of two Pennsylvania state troopers and a pedestrian on I-95 in March is set to face a judge for a preliminary hearing on Wednesday. This court appearance comes after the initial hearing was postponed in April. Police say Jayana Tanae Webb, 21, was driving an SUV when it struck Trooper Branden Sisca, 29, Trooper Martin F. Mack III, 33, and Reyes Rivera Oliveras, 28, on I-95 in Philadelphia. The impact of the crash sent the three men over the median and into the northbound lanes. All three were pronounced dead at the scene and Webb was taken into custody, according to officials. Webb is facing more than a dozen charges connected to the incident, including three counts of third-degree murder, three counts of homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence and two counts of second-degree manslaughter of a law enforcement officer. Jayana Webb, 21, is due in court for a preliminary hearing in connection with the deadly crash that killed two Pennsylvania state troopers and a civilian in March.
