Granger Twp, OH - John Horne Dies in Two-Car Crash at OH-18 & OH-94

Granger Twp, OH (November 5, 2021) – A Hinckley man was killed following a two-vehicle collision in the Granger Township area on Thursday, November 4. 

The fatal crash occurred at the crossing of OH-18 and OH-94 at around 4:07 p.m. Local reports revealed that 70-year-old John E. Horne of Hinckley was driving a 2008 Chevrolet eastbound on OH-18 when he made a turn onto OH-94. This is when Horne’s vehicle was struck in the side by a 2018 Jeep. 

Both vehicles were disabled due to the impact. Horne was transported to Akron General Hospital and later pronounced dead. The 19-year-old Medina man driving the Jeep was also hospitalized for treatment of sustained injuries. 

We would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of John E. Horne at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victim and his family in hopes of a full recovery.
