Ashten M. Richey, 24, of Bellefontaine, was cited for failure to control following a non-injury crash Sunday evening on U.S. Route 33 just east of County Road 55.
Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office report he was operating an eastbound car in the left lane of U.S. 33 about 7:45 p.m. when he attempted to pass an eastbound sport utility vehicle in the right lane operated by Justin P. Davis, 28, of Bellefontaine. Mr. Richey reportedly lost control in the winter weather conditions and struck the SUV, and then his car went off the left side of the road into the median.
Damage was moderate to the car and light to the pickup. The drivers were wearing their seat belts.
