Disabled Vehicle on Northway Hit, Killing Capital Region Teen

An 18-year-old from the Capital Region was killed in an early morning crash on Northway after her vehicle had become disabled and was stopped in the center lane of traffic.

That's according to New York State Police who say that Megi Hamza of Guilderland was traveling northbound on the Northway at around 4:45 a.m. on Sunday morning near the Twin Bridges when her vehicle became disabled in the middle land. Troopers say a tractor trailer driver turned on his hazard lights and pulled up alongside Hamza vehicle.

According to the accident report, the driver of an SUV, 72-year-old Timothy Murphy of Glens Falls, changed lanes to avoid tractor trailer but did not see the disabled sedan and slammed into it.

Hamza was taken to Albany Medical Center where she later died of her injuries. Murphy was also transported to the hospital. His injuries are not considered life-threatening, state police said.

The accident is still under investigation.
