One dies after crash along state Route 82

HOWLAND — One woman died at St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital on Wednesday evening after her Buick Encore went off state Route 82, down an embankment and into trees Wednesday morning, according to the Warren post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

A caller reported hearing a car horn blowing down the embankment between North Road and the state Route 46 entrance around 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, according to a Trumbull County dispatch call sheet. The patrol report states Pamela Acitelli, 70, of Niles, drove her SUV off the right side of the road and struck a guardrail, then drove across three westbound lanes and hit the median concrete barrier. She then drove back across the westbound lanes and went off the right side of the road into a ditch.

Acitelli was found in the SUV unconscious with a head wound and a light pulse, the 911 dispatch report states. The crash remains under investigation by the patrol.
