Fatal accident

COLUMBUS, Ohio – One person was killed in an early-morning accident on the East Side that closed down a major road during the morning rush, rerouting some school buses.

A single vehicle was found crashed into some trees at the intersection of Noe-Bixby Road and Carbondale Drive just before 3:15 a.m., police said.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene by Columbus fire personnel.

Noe-Bixby was shut down for several hours between Carbondale and Majestic Drive, forcing commuters and Columbus City Schools buses to find alternate routes.
