The Ohio State Highway Patrol said a car heading northeast on
Route 28 struck a car that had been trying to cross the road
shortly after 1:30 a.m. Sunday in Goshen Township. Troopers said
the two vehicles ended up in a ditch and an embankment.
Authorities said the crash claimed the lives of both drivers,
Mathew Penny, 25, of Cincinnati and Dustin McDole, 43, of
Goshen. Also killed were two occupants of Penny's vehicle, Chloe
Love, 19, of Loveland and Dezmen Jernigan, 18, of Goshen, as
well as McDole's passenger, Andrea Iery, 42, of Pleasant Plain.
All were pronounced dead at the scene by the Clermont County
coroner's office, authorities said. McDole and Iery were wearing
seatbelts at the time of the crash, officials said.
An 18-year-old Milford resident who was also in Penny's car was
taken to UC Medical Center with what the highway patrol
described as "life-threatening injuries."
