WILLIAMSBURG, Pa. (AP) - Authorities say a car traveling at high speed crashed into a central Pennsylvania farm field over the weekend, killing two people and severely injuring two others.

Police in Blair County told The (Altoona) Mirror (https://bit.ly/1F3ZXV2 ) that the car went off Route 22 just east of Canoe Mountain in Catherine Township at about 1 a.m. Saturday.

Coroner Patricia Ross said 21-year-old Allison Edwards was pronounced dead at UPMC Altoona less than an hour after the crash while 26-year-old driver Joshua Fay died shortly after 5:30 a.m. Sunday.

Police said another passenger was in critical condition at UPMC Altoona, while a fourth person had been flown to Pittsburgh for treatment.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation but police said the car was traveling “at a high rate of speed.”
