Fostoria Woman, 24, Killed After SUV Slides Under Semi in Wood County
Cheyenne Rock, 24, of Fostoria, died Thursday night after the SUV she was driving ran a stop sign and slid underneath a semi-trailer in Wood County.
Rock was driving a white 2015 Ford Edge west on Sugar Ridge Road around 8:57 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, when she failed to stop at the stop sign at Dunbridge Road, north of Bowling Green. Her SUV struck a northbound 2019 International semi-tractor pulling a van trailer.
The SUV became trapped underneath the trailer. Rock was freed from the vehicle and flown by Mercy Life Flight to Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center in Toledo, where she later died.
The semi driver, a 61-year-old rural Fostoria resident, had the right of way. Both drivers were wearing seat belts, and impairment does not appear to have been a factor in the crash. The crash remains under investigation.
