Three people were killed late Sunday night in a fiery wrong-way crash on Interstate 90 in Avon, after a Tesla driver fled a domestic incident and then a police traffic stop, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

The crash happened around 10:50 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 8, on westbound I-90 near Nagel Road in Lorain County. Investigators say a gray 2025 Tesla Model 3 was traveling east in the westbound lanes when it struck a red 2014 Chevrolet Cruze and a 2019 Chevrolet Traverse head-on. A fire broke out after the impact.

Killed at the scene were Tesla driver Andrew Sheridan, 50, of Avon Lake; Cruze driver Josylynn R. Geren, 24, of Elyria; and Cruze passenger Samantha Spicer, 24, of Vermilion. The Traverse driver, Richard Siaz, 26, of Lorain, was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The Highway Patrol’s Elyria Post says Sheridan fled the scene of a domestic incident in Avon Lake earlier that evening. Avon police located the Tesla and attempted a traffic stop around 10:48 p.m. on Nagel Road, and the Tesla fled onto I-90 going the wrong way. The investigation is ongoing.

Westbound I-90 was closed for about four hours and reopened around 5:30 a.m. Monday.
