Four people, including three children, were injured, according to the Department of Public Safety. The crash occurred between the Roberto Clemente and Andy Warhol bridges. Witnesses reported a dark-colored SUV was traveling east on the bypass when it skidded on the pavement, crashed into a concrete barrier and rolled. The SUV and a small, white westbound vehicle, driven by Markilinski, then collided. Bystanders, including an off-duty fireman, performed CPR on the driver of the white vehicle. Police and EMS arrived soon after and continued lifesaving measures. Despite their efforts, Markilinski was pronounced dead at the hospital. Four people — a woman and three children, including a baby — in the SUV were injured. The mother was transported to UPMC Mercy in stable condition, and the children were taken to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC in stable condition. The driver of a third vehicle, a male, was not injured. The 10th Street Bypass was closed until 9 p.m. while investigators processed the scene. Names of the other victims were not available.
