OHIO — Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R) has ordered that all U.S. and Ohio flags be lowered to honor the lives of those killed in the Tuscarawas Valley Local School District bus crash.

On Tuesday morning, a charter bus carrying students from a northeast Ohio high school was rear-ended by a semi-truck on I-70 near state route 310, leaving at least six people dead and 15 others injured, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol. 

The victims have been identified as John W. Mosely, 18, of Mineral City, Jeffery D. Worrell, 18, of Bolivar, Katelyn N. Owens, 15, of Mineral City, Dave Kennat, 56, of Navarre; Kristy Gaynor, 39, of Zoar; and Shannon Wigfield, 45, of Bolivar.

DeWine has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff at public buildings and grounds throughout Tuscarawas and Stark counties, at the Ohio Statehouse, Vern Riffe Center and Rhodes Tower. The flags will be lowered from sunrise to sunset from Nov. 15 to Nov. 18.

Other public buildings and grounds throughout the state may fly the U.S. flag and Ohio flag at half-staff at their discretion for the same time period.
