UPDATE
Henrietta Township – The 56 year old victim of a motorcycle crash last weekend died Wednesday at MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol confirmed Wednesday night that Michael Yelensky of Wakeman died while being taken into surgery for a blood clot in his leg.

Yelensky was traveling north on Baumhart Road on his motorcycle and was approaching Route 113 while 34 year old Chester Maclean of Vermilion was traveling south on Baumhart. Maclean attempted to make a left turn onto Route 113 pulling right into the path of Yelensky causing the crash.

Yelensky was treated at the scene by Paramedics from Central Lorain County Ambulance District then transported to Allen Community Hospital in Oberlin. He was later flown to MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland.

Maclean was cited at the scene for failure to yield when turning left.
