Woman ‘critical’ in Preble Co. rollover crash

UPDATE @ 9:45 p.m. (May 9):

A woman was critically injured in a rollover crash today along Ohio 122 north of Greenbush Road.

Tabitha McKeehan, 34, apparently lost control of her red Chevrolet Cavalier and overcorrected, went off the right side of the road and into a ditch, when she went airborne and struck a utility pole, shearing it in half, said Sgt. Frank Simmons of the Ohio State Highway Patrol’s Dayton Post. The car landed on its top.

McKeehan, whose driver’s license was suspended, was taken by CareFlight to Miami Valley Hospital. Her passenger, 43-year-old Moises Torrres, was treated and released at the scene.

The crash remains under investigation, but McKeehan faces possible citations for driving under suspension, failure to control and drug paraphernalia because troopers found a suspected marijuana pipe in her purse, Simmons said.
