COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. - A Pennsylvania state trooper will be laid to rest Saturday after he and another trooper were killed by a suspected drunk driver as they assisted a man on I-95 in Philadelphia last week.
The funeral for Trooper Branden Sisca will be held at Perkiomen Valley High School in Collegeville, Pennsylvania on Saturday morning, following a procession from the funeral home to the high school.
Sisca, 29, and Trooper Martin F. Mack III, 33, were on the highway responding to a call for a man walking in the southbound lanes of the roadway when police say all three were struck and killed by a suspected drunk driver.
Authorities say Jayana Tanae Webb, 21, was behind the wheel of the SUV when it plowed into the men, sending all three over the median and into the northbound lanes.
