Warren ,OH : Four -vehicle crash injures Three people on Tuesday early-morning ,July 7th 2015

Three people, including a Warren police officer, were treated at local hospitals after their cars were involved in an early-morning crash today on Summit Street Northwest.

A report states one of the three is Chelsie N. Spelich, 20, of Rosegarden Drive in Howland, whose car hit the back of the Ford Explorer cruiser of Patrolman Christopher Martin at 7:40 a.m., pushing his vehicle into one in front of him, which led to two other vehicles in front also being involved.

The three cars hit from behind were stopped at the traffic light on Summit Street near Tod Avenue Northwest. Spelich’s car was the fourth car.

Sgt. Patrick Abel of the Southington Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol, which investigated the crash, said Martin, 47, Spelich and another driver suffered minor injuries. A fourth driver indicated she had no injuries.

Spelich, who also has an address in Summerville, S.C., was charged with failure to stop after an accident, operating a motor vehicle intoxicated and failure to maintain assured clear distance, the highway patrol said.

The failure-to-stop charge resulted from Spelich leaving the scene after the crash, Abel said, adding that alcohol and drugs are believed to be a contributing factor in the crash.
