Colby Hall, 17, of Elizabethtown, died in the crash on the 700 block of Amosite Road in West Donegal Township last Friday night, WGAL News 8 reports citing the Lancaster County coroner.
Daily Voice has reached out to coroner for further information but did not immediately hear back.
Hall’s mother posted a comment on Daily Voice's original article shared in a Facebook Group, confirming the victim was in fact her son.
Northwest Regional police were called to the crash in the 700 block of Amosite Road in West Donegal Township, around 11:35 p.m., according to the police statement Daily Voice previously reported.
A police investigation determined the Ford Explorer Hall was driving westbound on Amosite Road and crossed into the opposing lane of traffic, before driving off the road, colliding head-on with a tree— engulfing the car in flames.
Police believe speed was a factor.
Hall's community continues to rally and pray for him and his family as seen in social media posts:
"Colby played lacrosse for the Elizabethtown high school team and Lebanon Valley Lacrosse Club. He loved to fish and lift weights. He was extremely hard working and dedicated. He went to CTC for welding and planned to work as a welder after graduation or attend Penn College of Technology for welding," Hall's mother Melanie Hall told Daily Voice.
Hall is survived by his parents.
Visitation will be at St. Peter Catholic Church on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., with a mass at noon, according to his mother.
