A Fostoria woman was killed in a two-vehicle crash Thursday (Nov. 12) evening north of Bowling Green.
The Wood County Sheriff’s Office responded to the crash around 9 p.m., at the intersection of Sugar Ridge Road and Dunbridge Road, involving a 2015 Ford Edge driven by Cheyenne Rock, 24, of Fostoria, and a 2019 International semi-tractor pulling a van trailer driven by Emmett Kelly, 61, of Fostoria.
The preliminary investigation reportedly showed that Rock was traveling westbound on Sugar Ridge Road and failed to stop at a stop sign posted at Dunbridge Road. The truck was traveling north on Dunbridge Road and had the right-of-way through the intersection.
The car struck the truck and became trapped under the semi trailer. Both vehicles continued north on Dunbridge Road and came to rest partially on the road and in a field. According to the accident report, Rock was trapped in the vehicle.
After extrication, she was transported by Mercy Life Flight to Mercy-St. Vincent Hospital in Toledo, where she later died.
Both drivers were wearing seatbelts, and impairment does not appear to be a factor in the crash.
The Wood County Sheriff’s Office was assisted on the scene by Middleton Township Fire and EMS, Bowling Green Fire and EMS, Perrysburg Township Fire, Mercy Life Flight, and Ray’s Towing.
The crash remains under investigation.
