Local State Trooper Charged with Vehicular Homicide

Court dockets show that Jeffrey M. Dalessandro of Canonsburg was also charged with DUI and other offenses related to a crash Wednesday night.

 

A local state trooper was charged Wednesday by state police in Corry, PA with homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence, two counts of DUI, involuntary manslaughter and other offenses following a crash that killed an Edinboro man.

Online court records show that Jeffrey M. Dalessandro, 35, of Canonsburg, was arraigned Wednesday and briefly remanded to jail on $25,000.

GoErie.com reported that police said Dallesandro was driving impaired "when his eastbound truck crossed the center line on Route 6 in Union Township at about 10:15 p.m. Wednesday and struck a westbound Chevrolet Blazer driven by 21-year-old Daryl L. Nunemaker. Nunemaker was pronounced dead at the scene."

Dalessandro is a state trooper in Washington, the website reported. He has been employed by the state police for nine years, a police spokesman told GoErie.com.

Dalessandro is scheduled to appear at 1 p.m. Feb. 17 before district Judge Carol L. Southwick in Erie County, online court records show.
