LANCASTER, Ohio — A 29-year-old Circleville man was killed Tuesday afternoon in a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of State Route 188 and Royalton Road in Fairfield County, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
The crash occurred when a 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage, driven by Jacob Bush, 29, of Circleville, was traveling southeast on Royalton Road and attempted to turn left onto State Route 188.

Bush sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Biggum suffered minor injuries and was transported to Mount Carmel East Hospital for treatment.
A passenger in the Mitsubishi, Christopher Jordan, 26, also sustained minor injuries and was taken to Mount Carmel East Hospital.
