Twin Township crash injures Sahkyia Martin, OSHP reports

TWIN TWP, OH, (April 09, 2026) — A 20-year-old passenger was seriously injured in a two-vehicle crash Thursday afternoon in Twin Township, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Authorities said a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze failed to yield at a stop sign on Potts Hill Road at approximately 2:32 p.m. and entered the intersection with Ohio 772, where it was struck by a 2015 Jeep Renegade.

Sahkyia D. Martin, a passenger in the Cruze, sustained serious injuries and was transported to Grant Medical Center. Both vehicles were disabled and towed from the scene.


CRASH INVESTIGATION

According to the Federal Highway Administration, about 40 percent of vehicle crashes occur at intersections, often due to drivers failing to obey stop signs or traffic signals. Common contributing factors include impatience, reckless behavior, and distracted driving. Candice Bond, an experienced auto accident attorney, noted that such incidents often require an independent investigation to ensure victims’ rights are protected.

“It is essential to determine the precise cause of these types of crashes. An attorney has the resources to evaluate insurance coverage, retain expert witnesses, conduct background checks, and identify witnesses. We guide the victim’s family through every step of the process,” said Candice Bond, a managing partner with Bond Legal.

“Beyond the police report, an attorney will closely examine all contributing factors,” Bond added. “Legal professionals can bring in expert witnesses, perform driver background checks, locate witnesses, and review insurance coverage. Acting as an advocate, an attorney helps guide an injured victim through what can be a complex process.”


PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Sahkyia Martin may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim, depending on the outcome of the investigation.

Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, stated, “Injured victims involved in collisions often pursue personal injury claims to cover medical expenses, future treatment, lost income, emotional distress, and pain and suffering.

“Insurance companies are often unconcerned with the growing financial burden on victims. That is where an attorney becomes essential. We advocate for victims daily, ensuring that insurance companies are held accountable for their actions,” he added.
