One person was injured in a crash near the intersection of Salem and Malvern avenues in Dayton on Monday evening, with the person taken to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries. Police at the scene also said that one person reportedly ran from the crash site.
What We Know About the Crash
Montgomery County Regional Dispatch reported the crash at around 6:05 p.m. Monday near Salem and Malvern avenues, according to WHIO TV. The outlet reported that one person suffered minor injuries and was taken to a local hospital, a detail attributed to Dayton police who were at the scene.
A dispatch supervisor told the station that at least two medics were called to respond. Police also said that one person reportedly ran from the scene, though the report did not specify who fled or why. The station noted it planned to update the story as more information became available.
A Separate Incident Last Month
The reported flight from Monday's crash scene echoes a separate Dayton incident from October 4, when a vehicle struck three parked cars in a chain reaction near Revere Avenue and Donald Avenue, according to dayton247now.com. In that case, the outlet reported that the driver and a 23-year-old male passenger both ran from the scene with children. The October incident remains a separate case, and the available reporting does not tie the two crashes together as part of any broader pattern.
Details surrounding Monday's crash on Salem and Malvern avenues remain limited, including what led up to the collision. WHIO TV said it would provide updates on the story as further details emerge from authorities.
