COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A woman has been killed in a central Ohio traffic accident as snow and freezing rain create treacherous driving conditions in Ohio.
Temperatures were expected to rise across the state Saturday, with temperatures climbing into the 50s in some parts before dropping again overnight.
Authorities say a Columbus woman died Saturday after her car went off a wet, icy road in Jackson Township, became stuck, then was hit by another vehicle as it went off the road. Franklin County authorities say the woman, 20-year-old Savana Carrier, was standing outside her car when she and her vehicle were hit.
Multiple other crashes were reported late Friday and early Saturday, including two multi-vehicle crashes on the Ronald Reagan Highway just north of Cincinnati. There were no other reports immediately of fatalities.
