31. 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.
