CLEVELAND — A Carroll County woman is dead after a single-car crash overnight Sunday in Tuscarawas County, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said.

According to the OSHP, a 2009 Dodge Challenger driven by Richard Sickels, 48 of Sherrodsville, was traveling east near milepost 22 when the vehicle "went off the right side of the roadway, striking a guardrail." The car overcorrected and struck a ditch on the left side of the road and overturned.

Alcohol is a suspected factor in the crash.
Two rear passengers, a 25-year old resident of Baltic and a 24-year-old Dennison man were transported to area hospitals with minor injuries.
