Other victims included a drowning in the Allegheny River near New Kensington, a second drowning at Page's Lake, a railroad strike near Danville, and multiple car crashes in Warren, Kane, and Centre County. Authorities noted the weekend tally as the lowest since mid-April, despite a spate of accidents and fatalities.
