- MIAMI TWP., MONTGOMERY COUNTY

One person has died following a crash involving a train and car at the intersecti­on of West Linden and North Riverview avenues in Miamisburg, according to dispatch records.

The victim was identified as Patricia Harris, 77, of Miamisburg, according to the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office.

The crash was reported around 11:30 a.m.

A woman called 911 after she witnessed the collision.

A pharmacist was indicted Monday on a dozen felony drug charges.

Steven Joseph Hogel, 34, of Miami Twp., will be arraigned Sept. 3 for 12 counts of deception to obtain dangerous drug charges, according to a Montgomery County grand jury report.

Hogel’s license has been suspended, according to the Ohio Board of Pharmacy online records.

The indictment alleges that Hogel obtained multiple drugs between Feb. 20, 2017, and Dec. 20, 2018, including breast cancer medication­s, anti-inflammato­ry drugs, powerful antibiotic­s and a drug to treat erectile dysfunctio­n.

He is not in custody and was summoned to appear for his arraignmen­t. morning was the second brush fire to break out at the facility in less than 12 hours.

On Monday afternoon, firefighte­rs also responded to a brush fire at the facility in the 2600 block of Needmore Road, just east of Interstate 75.

Both fires happened in different parts of the facility and appear unrelated, officials said.

Tuesday’s fire happened in a tornado debris pile that is estimated between two and three stories high.

Firefighte­rs used a contractor with an excavator to break down the piles and get to the source of the blaze.

The official fire’s cause is unknown and still under investigat­ion.

Arson has not been ruled out as a possible cause of the fire and employees told firefighte­rs they have been dealing with trespasser­s who are on their property to fish, investigat­ors said.

No injuries have been reported.

Wagner Ford Road was initially closed, but completely reopened around 4 a.m. on Tuesday.
