How the Reily Millville Road Crash Unfolded
Deputies and the Reily Township LifeSquad were called to the intersection at about 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The sheriff's office said an eyewitness described a vehicle heading east on Reily Millville Road that tried to make a left turn onto Bunker Hill Woods Road, heading north. According to the sheriff's office, the westbound motorcycle hit the back passenger side of that vehicle and then ran off the right edge of the road.
Marten was pronounced dead at the scene. The sheriff's office said the vehicle's driver drove away without stopping. Family members identified Marten as the person who died.
What the Sheriff's Office Investigation Involves
The crash remains under investigation. The sheriff's office said its Serious Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team came to the scene to investigate and process it. The sheriff's office said it will share a description of the vehicle that left once it has more information. No charges have been announced.
In a hit-and-run, the first weeks are usually about finding the vehicle. Tips and home camera video from neighbors often matter most.

Lost someone in a crash like this?
Here is what families in Ohio usually need, in the order it comes up.
Death certificates. The funeral home or the family can order them, and banks and insurers each usually want a copy.
Crash report. The crash report is usually ready a few weeks after the crash, and you can still get it later.
Funeral costs. Every state has a victim fund that pays funeral costs after some crashes, and the fund decides who qualifies.
Survivor payments. If the person who died had worked, their spouse or children may get monthly Social Security payments. Applying early matters.
