A multi-vehicle crash on Tuesday in Pike County killed two people from Troy, state troopers said.

The accident happened about 3:31 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 31, troopers said.

Chloe Nichol Hardy, 19, was fatally injured when the 1997 Toyota 4-Runner that she was driving was struck by the 2000 GMC C1500 driven by Albert James Grubbs, 58, of Clayton, according to a report from state troopers.

After the initial collision, the 4-Runner collided head-on with the 2005 Chevrolet Colorado driven by Warren Joseph Day, 35, of Luverne and later collided head-on with the 2012 Ford F-250 driven by Joshua Adam Karsten, 34, of Ariton. Hardy and a passenger in the 4-Runner, Edward Olanda Hardy, II, 22, also of Troy, were not using seatbelts at the time of the crash, were ejected and both were pronounced deceased at the scene, troopers said. Day and Karsten were injured and transported to an area hospital for medical treatment.

The crash occurred on U.S. 231 near the 175 mile marker, approximately three miles south of Troy city limits, in Pike County. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency’s Highway Patrol Division continues to investigate.
