Bratenahl, OH - One Killed, Four Injured in Pileup Crash on I-90

Bratenahl, OH (September 23, 2021) – A multi-vehicle accident in the Bratenahl area on Monday, September 20, left one killed and several others injured. 

The crash reportedly occurred on Interstate 90 just east of E. 9th Street. Paramedics were sighted near the scene at around 10:30 a.m. that morning. Three or more vehicles were reportedly involved in the crash. 

There were significant delays reported on the highway as crews worked at the scene. One person was pronounced deceased by attending medical personnel. Four adults were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment of sustained injuries. 

An ongoing investigation into the cause of the accident is being managed by local law enforcement officials. 

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery. 

Deadly Wrong-Way Collisions in Ohio

While wrong-way driver collisions are uncommon, statistics suggest that the number of fatal wrong-way collisions has increased in recent years. According to the American Automobile Association, 500 persons were killed in wrong-way collisions each year between 2015 and 2018. Head-on collisions are among the deadliest, accounting for about ten percent of all fatal wrecks each year.

Family members are often left reeling after a loved one’s life is tragically cut short due to the negligence of another, and recovering can be a difficult battle for surviving family members who are left to pick up the pieces. It is only natural to want to grieve, and pursuing a lawsuit is usually the least of their concerns.
