The head of the state police announced Monday that 14 people were killed in the 508 car crashes investigated by the state police between Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

Additionally, 202 people were injured in the crashes.

Commissioner Jeffrey B. Miller said 11 of those killed were not wearing seat belts. Fifty-two of the crashes, including four of the fatals, were alcohol related, he said.

During the same time period, state police issued 4,467 speeding citations, charged 209 with driving under the influence, cited 205 people for not wearing seat belts, and issued 34 citations for drivers not securing children in safety seats.

The fatalities are up from last year's Easter weekend -- April 6 through April 8. Last year, one person was killed and 209 people were injured.
