BGSU’s Price Injured, Another Dead in Auto Accident

Dan Price, a forward for the Bowling Green Falcons, was injured and another passenger killed Saturday night in an automobile accident near Marysville, Ohio, north of Columbus.

The Columbus Dispatch reported Monday that Price was driving when the car struck a ditch along Route 38, just south of Marysville, and flipped over. Neither Price nor the vehicle’s owner, Ryan Bernthisel, 26, of Bowling Green, was wearing a seat belt, and both were thrown from the car.

Bernthisel died of his injuries, while Price was treated at Union Memorial Hospital in Marysville.

Investigators have told the Dispatch that alcohol was a factor in the crash. The investigation is ongoing.
