They arrived to find a 56-year-old passenger in a 2010 Kia Soul dead from her injuries, the release says. Her name was not reported though police said she was a resident of Pocono Summit.

The driver of the Kia and the driver of a 2005 Chevrolet Colorado were both hospitalized with "moderate" injuries, officials added.
