Officials identify Rock Hill man killed in 4-vehicle crash near Catawba River

One driver was killed in a four-vehicle chain-reaction crash in York County near the Catawba River, South Carolina state police said.

The York County Coroner’s Office identified the person who died in the head-on wreck as Lloyd Gary Logan, 58, of Rock Hill.

Logan was entrapped in the vehicle and died at the scene, 5 miles east of Rock Hill on S.C. 5, said Trooper Joe Hovis of S.C. Highway Patrol.

The other drivers were all men from Lancaster County, Hovis said.

Police did not report any passengers in any of the vehicles.

The collision happened around 9 p.m. Tuesday.

Logan was driving a 2003 Dodge pickup south on highway 5, Hovis said. His truck hit a Chevrolet headed northbound driven by a 25-year-old Lancaster man, Hovis said.

The Chevrolet went off the road and hit trees. The driver of that vehicle was injured. The extent of his injuries is unclear.

Logan’s truck then collided with a tractor-trailer also headed north, Hovis said. The tractor-trailer driver, 26, was injured but not transported for treatment, Hovis said.

A fourth vehicle, another pickup, was sideswiped in the collision, Hovis said. Police did not report injuries to that driver.

The road was blocked as fire and emergency crews responded, along with police from the highway patrol and York County.

No charges have been filed in the crash.
