"Two teenagers and a 32-year-old woman have been arrested in connection with a deadly crash in Lexington County.
The accident, involving four cars, happened Monday afternoon on Highway 302 near the Columbia Metropolitan Airport.
According to the highway patrol, 19-year-old Sheldon Dubois of Cayce was driving with a suspended license when he lost control of a black pickup truck and crashed into three other vehicles, including a U.S. Postal Service truck.
Dubois is facing several charges, including reckless homicide.
Lexington County Coroner Harry Harman said 64-year-old (censored) of Lexington was traveling in a white pickup truck when he was hit by Dubois. Mitchell was not wearing a seatbelt and was pronounced dead at the scene, the coroner said.
Two others were hospitalized.
Troopers say a 17-year-old passenger in Dubois' truck is also being charged with leaving the scene of crime.
According to highway patrol, 32-year-old Sharon Ellsworth, who was not at the scene of the accident, is also being charged for allowing Dubois to drive the vehicle.
Investigators are still trying to determine Ellsworth's relationship with the two teens."
