A head-on collision on Fort Jackson Road (S.C. 12) where White Pond Road becomes Porter Cross Road resulted in the deaths of a young couple early Sunday morning. According to the S.C. Highway Patrol’s (SCHP) online Real-Time Traffic Information website, the collision occurred at or shortly before 6:19 a.m. More than four hours later, at 10:40 a.m., SCHP’s Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation Team, or MAIT, was still on the scene. While the victims had already been transported to area hospitals, their vehicles remained at the scene, one -- a dark green 4-door sedan -- on a rollback, the other what appeared to be a mauve four-door hatchback.
