CLAY TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- State police said speed was a factor in a head-on collision that killed a 19-year-old woman and sent some of her co-workers, who were in another car, to a hospital.

Christina Marie Williams, of West Sunbury, died in the crash at about 8:40 p.m. Tuesday on West Sunbury Road/Route 308 in Clay Township, Butler County.

Police said a 16-year-old boy was driving one of the cars and was on the wrong side of the road when his vehicle collided with Williams' car. In a report released on Friday, Pennsylvania State Police said the speed of the car driven by the 16-year-old was a primary factor in the crash.

No charges have been filed. Police are still investigating the crash and are asking anyone who may have seen one or two cars traveling at a high rate of speed on Route 422 or Route 308 between 8 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 11 to call 724-284-8100.

Officials said all three young men in the second car were not wearing seat belts. All were taken to a hospital with serious injuries.

"Everybody here was like family," said Edward Dixon, an employee of the Eat 'N Park restaurant where Williams worked.

Dixon said Williams hung out at the Eat 'N Park at Butler's Clearview Mall, even when she wasn't on the clock.

"Last night we were waiting for her to come up here," Dixon said.

Dixon said he and his friend drove along Route 308 in Clay Township to check on her.

"We drove out past her house. And on our way there, we passed an accident. We didn't know it was them, though," Dixon said.

Two of the boys in that vehicle, Mason Spencer and Cody Christy, were Williams' friends and co-workers.

"It's hard to imagine how I feel. And just to imagine how they feel is horrible," Dixon said.

Robert Rose is an assistant manager at the restaurant and knows all of the victims.

"It's just all family. They all get along. All hang out. They all work five days a week together," Rose said.

Christy and Spencer attend Moniteau High School, along with the third passenger in their car, DJ McKenney. McKenney is the only one involved in the crash not employed at Eat 'N Park.

Flowers now mark the spot where Williams, a Moniteau graduate and waitress at Eat 'N Park, died on the way to meet her friends.

"It's just disbelief. Everybody can't believe everything that happened," Dixon said.
