Car Flips Off I-95 Near Philadelphia Airport, Man Dies

A man died in a two-car crash along foggy Interstate 95 south of the Philadelphia Airport.

The crash around 3:30 a.m. Monday blocked all but one lane of I-95 southbound just before Wanamaker Avenue in Tinicum Township – that’s a short distance south of the airport. Around 5:30 a.m., investigators temporarily closed all lanes as they took photos of the scene.

State Police could be seen through dense fog investigating a car that landed on its roof about 30 to 40 feet off the roadway. The other vehicle -- with Delaware plates -- came to rest along the highway with damage to its driver's side.

The driver of the second car said it was very foggy at the time of the wreck.

No word yet on what caused the deadly wreck.

Crews reopened the roadway shortly before 7 a.m. but delays remained.
