Witnesses stated that they saw a red minivan and red SUV racing each other eastbound on Margaret Avenue at an extremely high rate of speed. Both vehicles then narrowly made a left turn onto Jacks Lane at which time the SUV passed out minivan. The vehicles subsequently turned right onto Faith Avenue before exiting the Borough eastbound onto SR-443. One witness, who was walking with his wife and children in the area, stated that he and his family had to step back off the roadway for fear of being struck by the recklessly operated vehicles.
