Accidents In Ohio From Dense Fog Cause Casualties
Fog swept across Ohio causing multiple traffic crashes. An 86 year old farmer Sam Linder was injured when a car hit his wagon near Canton and was hospitalized in critical condition. A sheriff’s deputy, Walter Agney, escaped injury when his car hit a truck. In Marion two people were injured in crashes involving two cars and a milk wagon. Trains faced delays in Cincinnati and no planes took off for 24 hours.
