Rollover crash kills 2 Fulton Co. teens
DELTA, Ohio - Two Fulton County teenagers were killed yesterday in a rollover accident near here that involved a sport utility vehicle carrying four people.
The two passengers who survived the crash were hurt slightly, the Ohio Highway Patrol said.
Michael Wheeler, 19, driver of the SUV, and Allen Henricks, 17, a passenger, both of Delta, were pronounced dead at the scene, troopers at the patrol's Toledo post said.
Mr. Wheeler, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the vehicle. The Henricks youth was strapped into the left rear seat, troopers said.
Jacob Zikovich, 22, and Chase Harmon, 16, both also of Delta, were treated at the Fulton County Health Center, Wauseon.
Mr. Zikovich was strapped into the right front seat, while the Harmon youth was strapped in the center rear seat, troopers said.
Mr. Wheeler was westbound on County Road J near State Rt. 109 in Fulton County's Pike Township about 3 a.m., when the SUV veered out of control and went off the north side of the roadway.
Mr. Wheeler over-corrected and the SUV then went off the south side of the roadway and into a ditch. The vehicle rolled over several times, troopers said.
