A Warren County man is facing a slew of charges, including aggravated vehicular homicide, following his involvement in two separate crashes in July, with one resulting in a fatality, as per FOX19. Jesse Tinch, 36, of Franklin, allegedly lost control of his vehicle on I-75, smashing into a guardrail and a concrete divider on July 20, then fleeing the scene before being implicated in a second fatal collision roughly 45 minutes later in Middletown.
In a related incident, a 75-year-old Morrow resident was killed in a crash on U.S. 22 near South Clarksville Road early yesterday morning. Robert Hinman's car left the roadway for reasons not yet determined, colliding with a guardrail and a tree, which was detailed in a report shared by WLWT. Hinman was declared dead at the scene, and the Ohio State Highway Patrol continued their investigation into the cause of this tragedy. There are no current connections drawn between these two incidents in Warren County.
The initial crash involving Tinch did not yield any immediate casualties, but the subsequent incident in Middletown had graver consequences, leaving an unnamed individual dead. Tinch has since been indicted on charges that also include failure to stop and DUI, emphasizing the severity of the allegations against him.
