Three motorists died and dozens more were injured in multiple chain reaction pileups on area highways Sunday morning due to icy roads. Starting at 7:00 a.m. on the westbound Schuylkill Expressway near the Gulph Mills exit a near 60-car pileup had I-76 closed in both directions for hours. 31-year-old Eric Blau from Philadelphia was killed in the crash and 30 people were injured. At the same time on the southbound Blue Route near the West Chester Pike exit in Broomall, Delaware County a jackknifed tractor trailer caused another accident. Three cars slammed into the trailer killing two drivers. They have been identified as Thomas Brennan from Lansdale and Jason Anderson from Dover, Delaware. Hundreds of other accidents were reported on surface streets. The Pennsylvania Turnpike was closed from Morgantown to the Delaware River Bridge until noon. The Betsy Ross, Walt Whitman, Ben Franklin, Tacony Palmyra, Burlington-Bristol, and Commodore Barry bridges were all closed throughout the morning. Drivers should be careful into the overnight as wet roads refreeze.

A Burlington County, New Jersey, woman has been charged with killing her newborn daughter after setting the infant on fire in the middle of a road. 22-year-old Hyphernkemberly Dorvilier of Pemberton Township is charged with one count of murder. She is being held on $500,000 bail. It happened around 11:00 pm on Friday night on the unit block of Simontown Road around 11:00 p.m. Friday. Neighbors saw Dorvilier outside standing next to the fire. She told them it was dog waste from her car. They told her to put it out and she poured a bottle of water on the fire. That's when the neighbors saw that it was a baby. They called 911 and the infant was taken to St. Christopher's Hospital for Children where she died. An autopsy still has to be performed by the Burlington County Medical Examiner. Where, how, and when the baby was born is also being investigated.

There has been a $9,000 reward posted by the family and friends of a missing teacher last seen in Philadelphia. 40-year-old Christopher Tully has been missing since January 6th. He is a Bucks County teacher and a father of three. He was last seen after he got out of his parent's car near Lincoln Drive and City Ave. Tully does suffer from bi-polar disorder and does not have his medication. He was wearing a black coat, jeans, and sneakers.
