U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., was at fault for a car accident that injured him, his wife and another driver, authorities said in a police report.
Fetterman and his wife Gisele were involved in the car crash early Sunday in Maryland in the area of westbound Interstate 70 at Interstate 68, between Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
According to a preliminary investigation, police said a Chevrolet Traverse was traveling “at a high rate of speed, well over the posted speed limit” before rear ending a Chevrolet Impala around 7:45 a.m., a six-page Maryland State Police report obtained by USA Today states.
