Lancaster, NY (WBEN) - A young Cheektowaga woman is dead, and a young man from Lancaster fighting for his life, after a crash crash on Transit Road in Lancaster last night.

Town police say they are looking into reports that the driver was racing another car when he lost control, and the car skidded across four lanes of traffic, before slamming into a utility police.

The force of the crash split the car in half, ejecting both the driver and his female passenger. The unidentified 21-year-old woman was killed. The 24-year-old unnamed driver is in very serious condition at ECMC.

Going fast enough to spin across 4 lanes on a clear night and still break the car in half means they probably weren’t out for an evening cruise.
