Fatal Horsham Road Accident Under Investigation

MONTGOMERY TOWNSHIP, PA -- Authorities are investigating an accident in Montgomery Township that left one dead earlier this month, police said on Tuesday.

The incident occurred on Thursday, Nov. 16 at around 2:29 p.m. on Horsham Road, just east of Montgomery Glen Drive, authorities said.

A 43-year-old man was driving his 2017 Audi A6 when he struck a 40-year-old man standing on the road, police said. The Audi then crashed into a 2006 Honda Ridgeline, which was owned by the pedestrian.

The 40-year-old died at the scene, police said. There was a passenger inside the Honda who was transported by VSMC Ambulance to an area hospital, along with the driver of the Audi. Both were treated and released.

It's not yet clear why the 40-year-old was outside of his vehicle and standing on the road, or why the driver of the Audi did not see him.

The incident remains under investigating by Montgomery Township police.
