Mr. Tyson was eastbound on State Rt. 281 about 7 p.m. Sunday when he stopped at the stop sign at State Rt. 199, pulled into the intersection, and collided with a northbound pickup driven by Robert G. Deckard, 34, of Toledo.

Troopers said Mr. Tyson was taken to Wood County Hospital, but a hospital spokesman said he was not a patient there.
