Driver Strikes Tree, Another Hits Deer In 2 Separate Accidents Just 1 Mile Apart On Roosevelt Boulevard

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A storm expected to bring and early taste of winter is causing slick road conditions across the region. There were two accidents about a mile from each other in Northeast Philadelphia Tuesday morning.

Officials say a vehicle struck a tree while heading northbound on the Roosevelt Boulevard at Comley Road just after 6 a.m.

Another crash happened just a mile down the road in the southbound lanes of the Roosevelt Boulevard when a driver hit a deer at Southampton Road.

Travelers should expect delays as the inner and outer lanes heading northbound on Route 1 are partially closed.
