Teen killed, 3 others hurt in rollover crash in Point Breeze

PITTSBURGH — One teenager was killed and three others were injured in a rollover crash in Pittsburgh’s Point Breeze neighborhood.

Just before 1 a.m. Thursday, police, fire and EMS were all dispatched to Beechwood Boulevard between Beechwood Lane and Gettysburg Street for a single vehicle rollover crash.

The three survivors of the crash were able to get out of the car after it flipped upside down on the road after hitting a pole. The driver and one passenger were taken to the hospital in stable condition. The other passenger was taken in critical condition.

Police say their investigation points to speed as a factor in this crash. That information did not surprise neighbors who say the stretch along Beechwood Boulevard in between Reynolds and Hastings Street can be dangerous because of speeding.
