Crews were dispatched around 12:25 p.m. to the 8200 block of West Third Street.
King was driving a 1994 Buick Roadmaster east on West Third Street when he “failed to maintain reasonable control of the vehicle and crossed the center line,” according to a crash report filed by the Trotwood Police Department.
The car went off the left side of the street, struck a fence and then struck a utility pole, the report stated.
King, who was the only occupant in the car, was taken to Miami Valley Hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
