Delaware Co, OH (December 4, 2024) – A serious multi-car crash occurred Tuesday morning on State Route 37 westbound, between Lackey Old State Rd and Big Run Rd in Delaware County, Ohio. The collision led to a significant road closure, affecting west and eastbound lanes. The Delaware County Sheriff’s Office (DCSO) reported the incident at approximately 8:00 a.m. and confirmed that the westbound lanes, along with one eastbound lane, remained closed until further notice.
According to the DCSO, first responders, including paramedics and firefighters, were quickly on the scene to provide medical assistance and clear the wreckage. Emergency personnel were able to extract the cars and transport the injured individual to a nearby hospital. The sheriff’s office did not immediately release details on the extent of the injuries or the identity of those involved in the crash.
By 1:54 p.m., one of the eastbound lanes was reopened, allowing some traffic to resume, but the westbound lanes remained blocked. The sheriff’s office, in coordination with local authorities, took immediate action to manage the traffic situation and direct drivers to alternate routes.
