One person dead following vehicle crash in Ohio

OHIO — A 42-year-old man from Bethel died following a single-vehicle crash early Thursday morning in Clermont County, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

The crash was reported at 12:38 a.m. on Starling Road near Parsons Road in Tate Township.

Authorities say Shawn Spencer was driving a 2007 Mazda 3 northeast on Starling Road when he failed to negotiate a curve.

The car went off the left side of the road, hit a tree and a traffic sign, and then struck a second tree, which brought the vehicle to a stop.

Spencer was the only person in the vehicle and was wearing a seat belt, OSP said.

He was flown by medical helicopter to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

Starling Road was closed for several hours but has since reopened.
