On Monday morning at approximately 7:48 a.m., a crash involving two tractor-trailer rigs occurred near milepost 180 on I-71 northbound in Mifflin Township, Ashland County, Ohio. A 2022 International semi-tractor trailer was parked disabled on the east shoulder when a northbound 2016 Kenworth T680 traveled onto the shoulder and struck the left rear of the International's trailer. The Kenworth then returned to the travel lanes before leaving the road and striking a guardrail. The Kenworth and its trailer caught fire and were destroyed. The International's driver, Shawn E. Elson, 55, of Dayton, was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, while the Kenworth's driver, Steven Earl Dyer, 54, of Liberty Township, was treated at the scene for minor injuries.
