Two youngest local graduates die in accident vehicles with off-road vehicles

Providence Twp., Ohio (WTVG) – Two teenagers died early Saturday morning in an accident with off -road vehicles, the authorities said.

The 18 -year -old Brayden Sadler from Grand Rapids and Jack Rowland, 18, from Perrysburg, died of the crash, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

A state representative said that the teenagers were the youngest graduates of the Osego High School. The school only took a closing ceremony on Friday evening.

The crash occurred shortly after midnight on Saturday in Henry – Lucas County Road near the S. River Road in Providence Township.

Sadlers said that Sadler had driven an off -road -bike north on Henry -Lucas County Road when Rowland drove south to the north when the vehicles collided on the head. The teenagers died at the scene.

In an OSHP statement, it was assumed that alcohol is a factor for the crash and that the vehicles were not properly equipped for public roads.

“The patrol of the State Highway in Ohio is reminiscent of drivers not to operate vehicles on public roads that are not properly equipped with the use of off -road vehicles always wearing the right safety equipment and never operating a vehicle while it is impaired,” says the statement of soldiers.
