ZOARVILLE The Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating a two-vehicle crash that killed 51-year-old Douglas W. Arkenburgh of Minerva on Monday afternoon.
The collision occurred on state Route 800 at state Route 212 in Fairfield Township at 4:04 p.m.
It happened as Arkenburgh was driving southwest on Route 800, according to patrol Sgt. Gary Wolfe. Arkenburgh drove a 2005 Chrysler Sebring over the centerline, striking a 2017 Kenworth semi dump truck that was traveling northeast.
The truck was loaded with gravel. It went off the right side of the road and hit a guardrail. The driver, a 69-year-old Millersburg man, was not injured.
BOLIVAR A 29-year-old Dover man suffered incapacitating injuries when his car overturned onto the exposed beams of a bridge in a construction zone above state Route 212 NE early Tuesday, according to Lt. Laura Taylor, commander of the New Philadelphia Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
She said the Chevrolet Malibu was northbound in a southbound lane at a spot in the construction zone where the lanes split. The car went off the right side of the road and hit rebar, which caused it to overturn onto exposed bridge beams. He was kind of hanging upside down with 212 30 feet below, Taylor said. He was attempting to get out of the car. The officer was trying to keep him from possibly falling onto 212 30 feet below.
