A tragic collision between a dirt bike and a FedEx van in Cleves has resulted in a fatality, as reported by multiple sources. The incident occurred yesterday afternoon around 4:40 p.m. at the intersection of Mount Nebo Road and Timberline Court. WLWT confirmed the crash involved a dirt bike heading eastbound on Mount Nebo Road and a FedEx van making a southbound turn onto Timberline Court, leading to a devastating impact.
