WOODWARD TOWNSHIP -- Two men are dead after they were hit by a vehicle on Route 220 in Lycoming County on Monday.

It happened around 4:30 p.m. Monday near the intersection with Quenshukeny Road in Woodward Township, just west of Williamsport.

Police said the men had pulled off the side of the road to change a tire. That's when another vehicle hit them. There were three people in that vehicle. They suffered minor injuries.

The coroner identified the victims as Syed Hamid Ali Shaw, 25, and Fazal Malik, 58, both from Williamsport. A third man, Yousaf Basir, was also hit but survived.

Police are still investigating the crash.

Then around 8 p.m., a second crash blocked Route 220 southbound at the intersection of Route 287 in Piatt Township, about five miles away from the first crash. There's no word of any injuries in that crash.

Route 220 was back open in both directions by 10:30 p.m.
