A Parma woman killed in a massive pileup on the Ohio turnpike was a victim of the first of two crashes that closed the highway Wednesday afternoon, the Ohio Highway Patrol said. Three people were killed after an accident in Sandusky County caused a chain reaction that resulted in a pileup that stretched over more than a mile of roadway and involved nearly 50 vehicles, the patrol said Thursday. The pile-up included two severe crash zones, the patrol said. Hannah Matheny, 20, of Laurent Drive in Parma, was killed in the first crash zone, a highway patrol press release said. She was a passenger in a Ford Focus that was part of an initial crash that involved 16 vehicles, the release said. The Sandusky County coroner has yet to determine her cause of death. Grzegorz A. Piwowarczyk, 42, a truck driver from Palatine, Illinois, was also killed in the first crash zone, the release said. Janice M. Robb, 66, of Schererville, Indiana was killed in the second crash zone, the release said. The patrol said the first accident was reported at 1:25 p.m. Wednesday and took place at milepost 102 in Fremont. A highway patrolman was injured in the pileup when he was pinned in between two vehicles, the release said. Trooper Andrew Clouser, the injured patrolman, was first transported to Firelands Hospital in Sandusky, and later to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center in Toledo where he remains under observation, the release said.
