The sudden and devastating incident has left family, friends, and neighbors in shock as authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.
According to the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office, the accident occurred in the 9300 block of Williamsport Pike in Falling Waters, a roadway that runs through a largely rural area of the county. First responders were dispatched to the scene at approximately 10:15 p.m. after receiving reports of a vehicle that had left the roadway.
Upon arrival, emergency personnel discovered a black Nissan Altima that had veered off the road and collided with a tree. Kristy Alger was found unresponsive inside the vehicle.

Authorities confirmed that Ms. Alger was the sole occupant of the vehicle at the time of the crash.
The exact cause of the accident remains unknown. Investigators have not yet released details regarding potential contributing factors such as speed, road conditions, mechanical failure, or impairment. As part of the ongoing investigation, the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office has initiated a full crash reconstruction, which is being conducted by Sergeant Ritchie. This process will involve analyzing the vehicle’s damage, tire marks, roadway evidence, and other data to determine how and why the vehicle left the roadway.
Traffic along Williamsport Pike was temporarily affected while emergency crews worked to secure the scene and investigators conducted preliminary assessments. The roadway was later reopened once officials determined it was safe for travel.
