Fulton County, OH – The Toledo Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating a fatal crash that occurred just before 10pm Wednesday. The Post says that the crash occurred on County Road 24, approximately one-quarter mile south of State Route 2 in Fulton County.
20-year-old Izreal Fonseca, of Napoleon, Ohio was driving a 2007 Ford Focus southbound on County Road 24. OSHP says that Fonseca crossed over railroad tracks at a high rate of speed, lost control of the vehicle and went off the right side of the roadway before overturning.
He was ejected from the vehicle, along with the 21-year-old Napoleon, Ohio man in the front passenger seat.
Fonseca succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased on scene. The 21-year-old was transported to Saint Vincent’s Hospital via Life Flight with serious injuries. Safety belts and impaired driving appear to be a factor in this crash, which remains under investigation.
