The incident occurred as a white Jeep Cherokee driven by 22-year-old Jocelyn P. Megee from Fairfield, Pennsylvania, was traveling eastbound. Concurrently a tractor trailer operated by 44-year-old Matthew S. Warren of Hagerstown, Maryland, was heading westbound on Waynesboro Pike.
According to the police report, the Jeep Cherokee lost control due to heavy rain conditions. The vehicle veered off the roadway, striking an embankment before flipping over onto its driver’s side. The Cherokee then slid into the westbound lane, colliding with the front end of the oncoming tractor trailer. This collision caused the Jeep Cherokee to come to a final rest facing west, while the tractor trailer halted in its lane of travel.

Tragically, Jocelyn P. Megee sustained fatal injuries in the crash and was pronounced dead at the scene. The Adams County Coroner’s Office responded to the location, and Megee’s next of kin were notified. Matthew S. Warren, the driver of the tractor trailer, was unharmed and did not require transportation to a medical facility.
Both vehicles were subsequently towed to a secure lot for further inspection as part of the ongoing investigation by PSP Gettysburg.
