MEIGS COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) -- One person is dead after a head on collision with a tractor trailer in Meigs County Thursday morning.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol says the crash happened just before 1 a.m. Thursday on U.S. Route 33.

A press release from the Highway Patrol says 41-year-old Stephen Burchett was pronounced dead at the scene. He was from Murraysville, WV.

Burchett was driving eastbound in an SUV and was trying to pass another car when he lost control. That's when he hit a tractor trailer head on that was driving in the opposite lane.

31-year-old Michael Willcox was driving the tractor trailer. He is from Piqua, OH. Willcox refused medical treatment.

Please do not assume anything. No matter what happened, the end result is the same - Craig has a 10 year old and 15 year old son that miss him every day and will for as long as they live. Nothing will take their pain away.
