Accidents on I-75 leave at least 1 dead and 3 injured

AMBERLY VILLAGE, Ohio – A pair of crashes on I-75 early Sunday left at least one person dead and three people injured.

Shortly after 3 a.m., police and officers arrived at the scene on Ronald Reagan Highway near Amberly Village.

Our crew on scene saw a car in the median in the middle of the road.

Investigators have not yet released any information about the cause of the accident or the severity of the injuries.

Our team saw the coroner at this location shortly after 4am.

Police told our team that one person was transported to the hospital for treatment.

A second crash occurred at approximately 3:50 a.m. near marker 9.2, Cincinnati police said.

Investigators determined that a driver traveling north lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a tree.

One victim was rescued with “Jaws of Life,” the Cincinnati Fire Department said.

Both the driver and passenger were taken to UC Medical Center for treatment, police said.

CPD said in a statement that both are in serious condition. Cincinnati firefighters previously indicated that one of the victims was in serious condition and the other was in critical condition.

Police say the driver of the vehicle was wearing a seat belt during the crash, but the passenger was not.

This pair of accidents closed sections of the interstate and caused backups as traffic was diverted.

Ohio Department of Transportation cameras indicate these roads are back open.
