MOHICAN TOWNSHIP — A North Ridgeville woman was killed in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 30 and Ohio 89 in Ashland County.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating the crash that occurred around 11:24 a.m. June 5.
Jeanette E. Vibbert, 66, of North Ridgeville, was operating a 2006 tan Hyundai Elantra sedan, traveling south on Ohio 89 and was attempting to go west on U.S. 30. Jason C. Hazen, 45, of Jeremosville, was operating a 2016 gray Jeep Cherokee SUV and traveling westbound on U.S. 30.
