Injuries not life-threatening in 3-vehicle crash on I-75

Three people were taken to the hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening Thursday evening as a result of a crash that shut down two lanes of northbound Interstate 75 between Needmore and Benchwood roads.

The lanes have since reopened.

According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol, the crash was reported at 4:54 p.m. involving three vehicles around the 59 mile marker.

A preliminary investigation showed a 2019 Ford F-350 with an attached trailer rear-ended a 2019 Jeep Compass, according to OSHP. The Jeep then went off the right side of the road and rolled over. The Ford also rear-ended a 2023 Chevrolet Malibu.

The drivers of all three vehicles were taken to Kettering Health Dayton, formerly called Grandview Medical Center.

A second crash also was reported in Butler Twp. on the ramp to southbound I-75 from Benchwood Road, according to Huber Heights police, which dispatches for Butler Twp.
