GAHANNA, Ohio — Gahanna officials have identified the 63-year-old man who was killed Sunday night in a crash involving a Columbus fire engine on Interstate 270.
The crash occurred on I-270 northbound near Hamilton Road around 9:55 p.m.
Columbus Fire Battalion Chief Jeffery Geitter said one of the vehicles involved crashed into the back of a fire engine.
The driver of that vehicle, Timothy Wiggins, of Delaware, was pronounced dead at the scene, according to Geitter. The passenger was taken to Mount Carmel East to be treated for injuries that were not life-threatening.
Geitter said a firefighter who was attending to one of the victims at the scene was attacked by a dog that was in one of the vehicles. The firefighter was also taken to Mount Carmel East and their condition was described as "stable."
All northbound lanes of I-270 were closed due to the crash but have since reopened.
