Hillsboro, OH : 4-car crash shuts down U.S. Route 50 east of Hillsboro on Sunday, 3rd March 2019

Slick roads on Sunday caused a number of accidents in Highland County, one of which involved four vehicles and shut down U.S. Route 50 east of Hillsboro for two hours, according to the Highland County Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff’s office officials said a four-car accident on U.S. Route 50 on a hill just east of town was apparently a chain reaction caused by the slippery roadway.

A dispatcher said the road was closed from about 3:45 p.m. until 5:33 p.m.

A photo that circulated on Facebook Sunday and Monday showed what appeared to be two vehicles off the road in the area and a law enforcement cruiser blocking the road.

Paint Creek Joint EMS/Fire District Public Information Officer Lt. Branden Jackman said there were no injuries reported.
