Multiple people were sent to the hospital after a crash on US Route 127 Friday afternoon.
The Lima/Allen County Regional Planning Commission has put together a draft of their 2020 traffic crash report. The report found that there were just over 2,800 crashes in Allen County last year, which is significantly down from the 3,200 crashes in 2019.
A person is in the hospital after another crash on the intersection of State Route 707 and 118 in Mercer County. The Ohio State Highway Patrol says that the crash happened just around 10 Wednesday morning. A pickup was heading west on 707 when the driver came to a stop at the intersection but failed to yield for the truck that was carrying a trailer, heading north on 118. The truck with the trailer struck the pickup and eventually ran into a pole, knocking down power lines. One person was sent to a hospital in Coldwater and is expected to be okay.
