Schuylkill driver in Lehigh crash

A Schuylkill County driver was one of three involved in a crash at 3:21 p.m. Jan. 20 along Route 309 in Lynn Township, Lehigh County.

State police at Fogelsville said Ricardo A. Liddie, 28, of Cambria Heights, New York, was southbound and going down a hill while negotiating a right curve. At the same time Shawn M. Kistler, 35, of New Ringgold, and Louis M. Blass, 36, of Sugarloaf, Luzerne County, were northbound negotiating a left curve while going uphill.

Liddie lost control of his 2018 Nissan Rogue and began to slide down the hill passenger side. Kistler swerved to avoid a collision and went onto the berm where his 2008 Dodge Ram truck struck a boulder.

Blass’s 2016 Jeep Patriot struck Kistler’s Rogue on the passenger side with the front of the Patriot.

No one was injured.

Troopers cited Liddie for the crash.
