New this morning, police are working on a fatal crash that happened around 2:30 a.m. at the intersection of Washington Center Road and Westcreek Boulevard.
There's no word on the events leading up to the crash that involves a car and a pickup truck.
Both vehicles sustained front end damage and the truck managed to roll on its side. Police say alcohol was a likely factor and Washington Center Road has since re-opened between Lima and Hillegas.
