Two people were transported to hospitals Monday after a crash on U.S. 42 that closed the highway for several hours.
Troopers from the Ohio State Highway Patrol reported Monday afternoon that around 11 a.m. a semi-truck driven by Glenn E. Fathbruckner, 57, of Delaware, was traveling north on U.S. 42 near County Home Road when a car driven by Teodula Gregory, 71, of Sunbury, failed to yield at the stop sign on County Home Road and was struck by the semi.
