2 BIKES DOWN ON ROUTE 83

Eaton Township – Three people were taken to the hospital Friday night after a collision between two motorcycles on Route 83 in Eaton Township.

Trooper Lance Deshuk of the Ohio State Highway Patrol said the two bikes were traveling northbound on Route 83 just north of Route 82 at the time of the crash. “The bikes were riding staggered and at some point the two bikes came in contact with each other sending them both to the ground. At this point we are getting conflicting stories from the three victims so we are not sure which bike went into the other.”

Eaton Township Firefighters treated both drivers, 28 year old Thomas DeCrane of Fairview Park and 32 year old Micheal Cehelnik of Lakewood, and one rider at the scene and then transported all three to St. John West Shore Emergency Room with road rash and other non-life threatening injuries.

Deshuk said that charges are pending the investigation.
