Police Officer David Tome was struck and killed by the driver of a vehicle while investigating a fatal accident that had occurred earlier in the week.
He and other officers had returned to the scene to conduct an accident reconstruction on Route 15, near Clear Spring Road, in Franklin Township.

The woman who struck him was talking on a cell phone and applying makeup when she struck him. On November 30th, 2010, she was sentenced to one to five years in prison, plus two years of parole.
Officer Tome had served with the Northern York County Regional Police Department for 5-1/2 years. He is survived by his wife, two children, mother, step-father, and sister.
