Armstrong County Coroner Brian Myers has identified the man killed in a Friday night crash in Plumcreek Township as 26-year-old Albert L. Perry of Cleveland, Ohio.
Myers says Perry died from multiple injuries suffered when he was ejected from his vehicle as it left Route 422 between Elderton and Shelocta, became airborne, struck a tree, and overturned. He was fleeing a traffic stop by Elderton Borough police, who gave chase after attempting to pull Perry over for traffic violations.
Authorities had difficulty establishing Perry’s identity because he had no ID on him or in the vehicle.
