According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol, 18-year-old Elijah Hitchcock, and his passenger, 20-year-old Gabrielle Hitchcock, both of Tuscarawas, were flown to Grant Medical in Columbus after their 2014 Hyundai Accent was t-boned by 2020 Ford F350 after failing to yield while pulling out of a private drive on US Route 50.
The crash took place around 2:40 p.m. on Monday, December 20th just west of US 50 mile-marker 32. The Patrol's release did not include the status of the driver of the Ford, 48-year-old Jason Drake, of Londonderry.
