News: Flooding claims second life in Ohio

By Paul Thomas

HANCOCK COUNTY (WKYC) -- A 92-year-old driver, trapped by high water near Findlay, Ohio, died Thursday.

The Hancock County Sheriff's Office received an emergency call for a man in trouble in the water.

Chopper 3 captured the rescue effort on State Route 235 as firefighters tried to resuscitate the man.

In Mansfield, a 74-year-old man died of smoke inhalation after flood waters toppled a gas can in an apartment garage.

The vapors from the gas can sparked the fire after coming into contact with a pilot light on a water heater.
