Troopers from the Georgetown Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP) were dispatched at 10:13 p.m. to S.R. 774 east of Starling Road in Brown County on initial reports of a crash, according to an OSHP spokesperson.

A preliminary investigation revealed that a 2011 Ford Fiesta was traveling west on the roadway while a 2008 Volkswagen was going east when they both collided with each other head-on.

Both vehicles were occupied only by the drivers.

Medics transported both by AirCare to the University of Cincinnati Hospital, the spokesperson said.

Two days after the crash, Erika Cox died from her injuries. She was the driver of the Ford Fiesta.

Mutual aid was provided by the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, Hamersville Police and Fire Departments, and both the Bethel Squad and Fire Department.

The crash remains under investigation.
