<p>After the woman struck the men, the vehicle hit a barrier and continued a short distance before coming to a rest on the highway&#8217;s right-side shoulder, authorities said. <br>Officers had reportedly stopped the woman on suspicion of DUI but left her when they were dispatched to respond to the man walking along the highway. ;<br>It is not clear why he was walking or why he was being taken into custody. His name has not been released as police try to contact his family. <br>Trooper Mack, 33, joined the state police in November 2014. ;<br>He ;was a 2006 graduate of Monsignor Bonner High school and went on to attend Albright University in Reading. He was married with two children and lived in Bristol Township, Bucks County. ;<br>Trooper Sisca, 29, joined the force in February 2021. ;He graduated from West Chester University in 2014<br>Both troopers spent their entire careers assigned to the Patrol Section of Troop K in Philadelphia.</p>

<p>&#8216;Our department is heartbroken with the tragedy that occurred early this morning in Philadelphia,&#8217; said Commissioner Robert Evanchick in a statement. ;<br>&#8216;We ask our fellow Pennsylvanians to keep the families of our troopers and the pedestrian in their thoughts. This is an extremely difficult time.&#8217;<br>Gov. Tom Wolf ordered all flags in state and public buildings throughout Pennsylvania to be flown at half-staff until sunset Friday in honor of Mack and Sisca. <br>&#8216;This is a heartbreaking tragedy that occurred while these troopers were protecting and serving,&#8217; Wolf said. <br>&#8216;This mournful incident is a stark reminder of the risks &#8211; and sacrifices &#8211; our law enforcement officers undertake every day to keep us safe. My heart goes out to their families and the communities they lived in and served.&#8217; <br>Authorities are not investigating the incident as a DUI. <br>&#8216;A young driver is potentially facing extremely serious consequences,&#8217; said Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, according to KYW.</p>
