A Hillsboro man was flown from Highland District Hospital to Grant Medical Center in Columbus Wednesday afternoon following this two-vehicle crash on U.S. Route 62 north of Hillsboro near Wright Road. According the Ohio State Highway Patrol Wilmington Post, Jarrod Page, 26, had been southbound and stopped to make a left turn onto Wright Road when his 2013 Ford Focus was rear-ended by a 2004 Peterbilt tractor-trailer owned by Palmer Farms and operated by Jamie Florence, 52, Hillsboro. The car was shoved a long distance down the road following the collision. The tractor trailer appeared to have minor damage to its front bumper and grill. Emergency personnel at the scene said Page got out of the vehicle by himself and was walking around and talking. However, the state patrol said Page suffered “serious injuries” at the scene. He was transported by the Paint Creek Joint EMS/Fire District to HDH before being flown on. Florence was cited for failure to maintain an assured clear distance ahead.
