Charlton Wallace never made it out of the hospital. He was 26. He died from the injuries he suffered in a rollover crash on Central Avenue near Cove Boulevard in Toledo, Ohio.
Toledo police say Charlton was driving on Central Avenue when he tried to make a right turn. He was in the left lane at the time. That’s the part investigators keep coming back to.
Another car was coming up on the road at that moment. Police say that driver, a 29-year-old, was heading west in the curb lane. The two vehicles met at the turn, and the other car hit the passenger side of Charlton’s.
The impact flipped Charlton’s car. It rolled over, and the crash turned serious in a matter of seconds.
Three people were taken to the hospital after it happened. Charlton was hurt badly, and he later died there. His family and friends are now dealing with a loss nobody saw coming.
Another person from the crash is still in the hospital. Police say that person has life-threatening injuries. There is no word yet on how that person is doing.
Toledo police are still investigating. They are working to figure out exactly how the two vehicles ended up in the same spot at the same moment. Until they do, a lot of people are left with one question about those last few seconds on Central Avenue.
Charlton Wallace was 26 years old. Our condolences go out to his family and friends, and to everyone who knew him.
