Public’s help sought in solving hit-skip crash

BROOKFIELD — The Ohio State Highway Patrol is still asking for the public’s help in finding a Ford F-150 pickup truck involved in a fatal hit-and-run crash in Brookfield Township.

The patrol said the truck is a 1997 to 2003 model that is red or maroon colored. It has a sticker of a rebel flag across the rear window and damage to the lower portion of the driver’s side panel. It has Mickey Thompson aluminum rims.

The crash killed Michael D. Brown, 38, of Youngstown. He was driving his motorcycle west on state Route 82 shortly after 10 p.m. when a pickup traveling southbound on Collar Price Road drove into Brown’s path.

Anyone with information is asked to call the patrol at (330) 898-2311.
