MORE: Box truck driver charged in fatal Middletown crash
A preliminary investigation indicates the driver of the pickup, a 22-year-old Hamilton man, ran the stop sign, police said. He was cited for a stop sign violation and remained hospitalized on Tuesday, according to police.
The owner of the truck, a Dodge Ram, lives in Hanover Twp. and was not driving it when it crashed.
When contacted by deputies on Monday morning, the owner said he last saw the vehicle in the driveway where he parked it about about 2 a.m. The doors were locked, but a rear sliding window did not lock, he said.
The road was closed for several hours Monday. The incident remains under investigation.
