WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP – The Franklin County Coroner's Office on Sunday released the names of the five people who were killed in a crash Saturday involving two motorcycles and an SUV.
Marjorie S. Smith, 68, of Johnstown; Douglas M. Hoffer Jr., 32, of Quarryville; Colleen E. Nesbitt, 27, of Gap; David A. Russell, 67, of Mount Joy; and Michelle G. Russell, 53, of Mount Joy, were all pronounced dead following the crash on the Fort Ritchie Access Road in Washington Township.
Franklin County Coroner Jeffrey Conner ruled the nature of the deaths accidental.
According to the coroner's office, Smith was driving north in a 2006 Toyota SUV around 2 p.m. Saturday.
For unknown reasons, her vehicle crossed the center line, and hit a 2009 Harley-Davidson motorcycle head on. Hoffer was operating the motorcycle with Nesbitt as a passenger.
Authorities said upon impact, the SUV spun counterclockwise, and was struck broadside in the passenger door by the second motorcycle – a 1999 Suzuki, operated by David Russell. Michelle Russell was a passenger in that vehicle.
All five were pronounced dead at the scene.
Autopsies are scheduled for Monday.
