MIAMI TOWNSHIP, Ohio — Two people are in the hospital with serious injuries after a four-vehicle crash on I-275 that left the highway's northbound lanes closed for hours, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
OSHP said the crash happened at around 6:33 a.m. Tuesday morning near SR-28 in Miami Township. Troopers said the preliminary investigation shows the driver of a Chevy Silverado was traveling south on I-275 when they drove into the median, hitting a cable barrier.
The Silverado then crossed into the northbound lanes of the highway, where it hit a Ford Fusion and Chevy Malibu. After the impact, both the Malibu and Fusion traveled off the right side of the highway, where both vehicles then hit a concrete wall.
A fourth driver in a Toyota RAV4 was hit by debris from the crash, the OSHP said.
The drivers of the Silverado and Fusion were taken to Bethesda North Hospital with serious injuries; both were later transported to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
The driver of the Malibu was taken to Anderson Mercy Hospital with minor injuries. The driver at the RAV4 was not hurt in the crash.
The crash is still under investigation, according to the OSHP.
