Inquiry developed that the train had run down and instantly killed a man by the name of Clyde Tawney, of Williamsport, at that place, as his automobile stalled on the railroad tracks. The force of the impact is said to have crushed the automobile on the tracks and the driver had no time to escape. His body, however, horribly mutilated, was placed aboard the train and taken to the central part of the city where it was received by an ambulance and taken to a hospital, but life had been extinct.
