The victim of a fatal Wednesday morning crash in Worcester was a Phoenixville resident, the Pennsylvania State Police said in statement.

Ronald Clark, 66, was driving his pickup truck at about 5:49 a.m. when a tractor trailer collided head-on with his vehicle, according to fire officials.

The incident occurred on South Valley Forge Road.

The Worcester Volunteer Fire Department and Skippack Fire Company responded to the scene, where they found one victim “heavily entrapped.”

They were able to stabilize the vehicle and get him from the pickup truck, but he was declared dead at the scene, fire officials said.
