OHIO — Alcohol is believed to be a factor in a fatal two-vehicle crash early Sunday morning in Hancock County, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
Troopers from the Findlay Post said the crash occurred around 2:59 a.m. April 19 on Interstate 75 near mile marker 145 in Union Township.
Investigators said a 2026 Chevrolet Silverado, driven by 51-year-old Jeanine Marsh of Englewood, was traveling northbound when it was struck from behind by a 2021 Dodge Charger. The Charger, driven by 21-year-old Samenda Moreau of Findlay, was reportedly traveling at a high rate of speed prior to the crash.
The impact caused the Silverado to leave the roadway and overturn. The Charger came to rest on the right shoulder of the interstate.
A passenger in the Silverado, 49-year-old Rondel Marsh of Englewood, suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Another passenger, 19-year-old Ryan Marsh, sustained minor injuries and was treated at the scene. Jeanine Marsh was transported to Blanchard Valley Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Charger and a passenger, identified as 31-year-old Besly Sidelca of Findlay, also sustained minor injuries. Both were treated, with Moreau taken to the hospital.
Troopers said alcohol is believed to have been a factor in the crash, and additional charges may be filed as the investigation continues.
Several agencies assisted at the scene, including Southwestern Hancock County Joint Fire, HANCO EMS, the Ohio Department of Public Safety, and a local towing company.
