 — Two people are dead after car crashes on major highways in both Lancaster and Chester counties Monday evening, authorities say.

In Lancaster County at about 5:10 p.m., a Kershaw man, 62, driving a 2007 Chevrolet pickup and wearing a seat belt was driving north on U.S. 601 when he veered to the left of the center lane and hit a 2004 International truck head-on, said Lance Cpl. Brent Kelly with the Highway Patrol.

The truck, driven by 34-year-old West Columbia man, then caught on fire, Kelly said.

The Kershaw man was pronounced dead on the scene, he said. It's unclear if truck driver was injured.

Both men were wearing seat belts, Kelly said. The pickup driver's identity was not immediately available Tuesday morning.

Hours later in Chester County, a pedestrian was hit by a car when he tried to cross S.C. 9.

At 11 p.m., authorities say a 41-year-old Lancaster man was hit by a 2003 Buick driven by a 47-year-old Richburg woman when he tried to walk across the highway, Kelly said. The man's name was not immediately available Tuesday morning.

A 73-year-old female passenger in the Buick was taken to Chester Regional Medical Center for minor injuries.
