Police are investigating a double-fatal, wrong-way crash in the Hudson Valley overnight.

It happened around 1 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6 in Orange County on I-87 in the town of Tuxedo.

A preliminary investigation by New York State Police has determined a passenger vehicle was driving northbound in the southbound lanes between Exit 16 (Harriman) and Exit 15A (Sloatsburg), when it struck another passenger vehicle head-on.

The vehicles were occupied by drivers only, both of whom were pronounced dead on the scene, state police said.

All southbound lanes were closed during the crash investigation until around 7 a.m. Tuesday.

More details, including the identities of the victims, are expected to be released later in the day.
