One person was killed early Saturday when a tractor trailer and sedan collided in the Lowcountry, according to the South Carolina Highway Patrol.
The collision happened around 4:30 a.m. on in I-26 in Dorchester County, said Master Trooper Hannah Davidson.

The deceased has not yet been identified by the Dorchester County Coroner’s Office.
No other injures were reported.
