Four additional middle and high school students were involved in an automobile accident Friday night that claimed the life of a 14-year-old middle school student. The collision occurred on Canaan Center Road close to E. Sterling Road in Canaan Township shortly before 4:15 p.m., according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol. According to OSHP, a 17-year-old lost control of their vehicle and veered over the side of the road while traveling north. According to OSHP, the vehicle struck two landscape islands and a ditch before repeatedly toppling over.

The catastrophe claimed the life of Creston resident Aurora Krahenbuhl, 14. With minor injuries, the driver, a 13-year-old, and a 14-year-old were all sent to the hospital. According to OSHP, a passenger who was 15 years old was also transported to the hospital with severe injuries. On Friday night, Superintendent Kevin Leatherman issued the following statement.
