CINCINNATI (AP) - Police say four people were killed when a minivan
carrying a family leaving a Christmas party went the wrong way on a
southwestern Ohio highway and hit another minivan whose driver and
family were going to see grandparents for the holidays.
Ohio State Patrol Sgt. Stan Jordan said the 2:30
a.m. head-on collision Sunday on Interstate 75 near Franklin took the
lives of 3 adults and a 7-year-old boy and critically injured two other
children.
Alcohol was a suspected factor. He said
investigators smelled liquor in the minivan that was going the wrong way
and found a bottle of alcohol in the vehicle.
He identified the dead as 40-year-old Joshua
Nkansah of Fairfield, Ohio, and his 7-year-old son David; and Scott and
Michele Barhorst of Madisonville, Tenn.
