Two individuals lost their lives in separate vehicle collisions in Clarendon County this past weekend, according to reports from the South Carolina Highway Patrol.
The first incident occurred early Friday morning, OcT. 25, around 4:49 a.m. on Paxville Highway in Manning. Tiffany Breanna Edwards, 34, of Sumter, was killed in a crash, with further details pending as the Highway Patrol continues its investigation.
Later that evening, at approximately 7:20 p.m., a second fatal collision took place on Salem Road near Burnt Branch Road. Kyle Kirby Green, 25, of New Zion, was driving eastbound in a 2003 Dodge Caravan when the vehicle veered off the right side of the road, struck a tree, and overturned. Green, the sole occupant, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Autopsies for both individuals are scheduled to be conducted this week at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). The South Carolina Highway Patrol, with Corporal David Jones leading the investigations, continues to review the causes of each crash.
