Two people are dead and two more are seriously injured after a two-car crash in Elyria Thursday afternoon, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said.

The crash happened at 3:22 p.m. on State Route 57 at Griswold Road, troopers said.

According to the highway patrol, the crash was caused when a driver in a Nissan Altima with two other passengers failed to stop at a red light on State Route 57 and hit a Toyota Corolla that was turning east onto Griswold Road. Troopers say an Elyria police officer was trying to stop the Nissan just before the crash.

The two passengers in the Nissan, 36-year-old Tanner Smith of Cleveland and 36-year-old Meghan Incorvaia of Wakeman, were pronounced dead at the scene. The driver was airlifted to a hospital with life-threatening injuries. Troopers say the occupants of the car were not wearing seatbelts.

The driver of the Toyota was taken by ambulance to an Elyria hospital with “serious” injuries, the highway patrol said.

The highway patrol said troopers are investigating the crash and no charges have been filed at this time.

  1. Two dead and one in ICU over a couple "Rocks"? Was it really worth it? One of the deaths was the innocent civilian in the other car. LAME!

  2. You have people trapped,car parts all over the road,one car is on fire and deputy dickhead runs up to the car with his gun out pointing at the window,I wonder if he sneaks up to a casket in a funeral home with his gun out to

  3. DRIVING RECKLESSLY IS TOO DANGEROUS FOR OTHER VEHICLES PEDESTRIANS WALKING AND WHEN TRAFFIC LIGHTS ARE RED ON A INTERSECTION TRAFFIC ZONE IS VEHICLES PASSING THROUGH THE RIGHT OF WAY ACCIDENTS ARE LEADING CAUSES OF INJURIES AND DEATHS HOW CAN ANYONE THINKING OF SPEEDING VIOLATIONS AND ENTERING INTERSECTIONS DRIVING HIGH SPEEDS IS NOT IN DANGERS OF ANY SITUATION POLICE FLASHING LIGHTS IS PULLING OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF ROADS TO STOP NEVER ENDANGERING LIVES WITH SPEEDING PURSUITS

  4. Couldn't even see what happened, only the aftermath.. cops were more concerned about making a bust than the driver of the other car, almost t-boned that Prius, couldn't break the glass in the suspect vehicle – not their best moment lol.. glad I wasn't on the road there during that risky and unnecessary pursuit

  5. Does such "hunts" make any sense. This could have ended far more worse. Yes you got them now, but all that risk. Try to get them when it is without all this crazyness.
