Driver of car that rammed porch identified

The driver whose Cadillac Eldorado crashed into the front porch at 2830 Old Montoursville Road in Loyalsock Township on Thursday afternoon was Robert Hacker, 82, of Muncy, state police said.

He was treated at the UPMC Susquehanna Williamsport Medical Center for minor injuries he suffered in the 3:30 p.m. crash, police said.

Hacker was exiting Interstate 180 East at East Third Street when his car verred off the ramp, traveled across all four lanes of East Third Street, plowed through a fence and struck two parked vehicles before hitting the structure. From the point when he lost control to where the car came to a stop, Hacker traveled an estimated 60 yards, fire officials said.
