Cheyenne Marie Rock, a 24-year-old woman from Fostoria, Ohio, was killed Thursday night after the SUV she was driving collided with a semi-truck at a rural intersection in Wood County. The violent crash left her vehicle trapped beneath the truck, and despite efforts by first responders to rescue her, she later died at a hospital.
According to the Wood County Sheriff’s Office, Rock was traveling westbound on Sugar Ridge Road in Middleton Township shortly before 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 12, 2026. As she approached the intersection with Dunbridge Road, her SUV failed to stop at a stop sign.
A semi-truck traveling north on Dunbridge Road was approaching the same intersection. The truck had the right of way when the two vehicles collided, sending Rock’s SUV beneath the much larger vehicle.
The impact was severe. Both vehicles eventually came to rest farther north along Dunbridge Road, leaving Rock trapped inside the wreckage. Emergency crews rushed to the scene and worked to free her from the crushed SUV.
First responders eventually extricated Rock and transported her to a nearby hospital. However, she did not survive her injuries. Authorities later identified her as the woman who lost her life in the collision.
The semi-truck was being driven by a 61-year-old man, also from Fostoria. His identity has not been released by authorities. Officials confirmed that both drivers were wearing seatbelts when the crash happened.
Investigators have also said there is no indication that impairment played a role in the collision. The Wood County Sheriff’s Office is continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.
Rock’s death has left a painful loss behind for those who knew her. At just 24, her life ended in a collision that unfolded within moments at an otherwise ordinary country intersection.
The crash happened in Middleton Township, a rural part of Wood County in northwest Ohio, near the communities of Dunbridge and Sugar Ridge. The area lies north of Bowling Green, the county seat, and within the greater Toledo region.
