GENOA — An Elmore man was killed and a Fremont man was injured in a head-on crash on State Rt. 51 northwest of Genoa in Ottawa County.

Robert Davis, 39, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday near North Reiman Road in Clay Township, township police said.

Michael Franks, 49, was flown to the University of Toledo Medical Center, the former Medical College of Ohio Hospital, where his condition was unavailable.

Mr. Davis was northbound on Route 51 between Genoa Clay Center and North Reiman roads when for unknown reasons he crossed the center line and drove into the path of the oncoming Franks vehicle. Both drivers were trapped in the wreckage, officers said.
