CINCINNATI — One man is dead after a crash in Bond Hill, Cincinnati police said.
Around 2:20 a.m. Tuesday crews responded to a single-vehicle crash on the 5800 block of Rhode Island Ave.
Investigators said they discovered 43-year-old Ronnie Givens dead at the scene. He lost control of his vehicle and struck a utility pole.
Excessive speed appears to be a factor in the crash, police said. Givens was not wearing a seat belt.
Investigators are still working to determine if impairment was a factor in the crash.
As of 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, nearly 100 people were without power, according to Duke Energy's outage map. The impact knocked out power initially to around 1,000 people.
After the scene is cleared Duke Energy crews will replace the utility pole. The utility company said power should be restored by 2 p.m.
