Woman dies from injuries in crash

HOWLAND — The elderly driver who crashed into a pole near 8501 E. Market Street on Friday has died, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Troopers are investigating the crash, and identified the driver as Marilyn Oyer, 84, of Warren.

Multiple people began calling 911 around 1 p.m. after seeing the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu crash through yards and into a utility pole, shearing it in half. One caller said the vehicle flipped over several times before it came to a rest.

Although investigators believed the 84-year-old driver had non-life-threatening injuries, she died at St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital 12 hours after the crash.

According to the patrol, Oyer was wearing her seatbelt.
