A Champion man died early Saturday when his pickup truck crashed in Weathersfield Township.

A news release from the Ohio State Highway Patrol says a Ford F-150 driven by 39-year-old Robert Warner II veered off West Park Avenue just before 6 a.m., striking a utility pole and a bridge.

Warner was pronounced dead at the scene.

The road, closed for one-and-a-half hours, has since reopened.
