1 dead, 1 seriously injured in crash on Eddy Road near Cleveland Memorial Shoreway
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – One person died and one was seriously injured in a severe car crash Friday night that closed entrance and exit ramps from the Eddy Road Bridge that crosses the Cleveland Memorial Shoreway.
Cuyahoga County’s spokesperson, Jennifer Ciaccia, said that at around 9:45 p.m., Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s deputies attempted a traffic stop for a car driving erratically on East 9th Street when the suspect vehicle fled.
Deputies pursued the suspect’s car, then it exited the freeway onto Eddy Road and struck another car just beyond the intersection of the I-90 off ramp and Eddy Road, according to a release.
Ciaccia said the second car then went over a traffic bridge and caught on fire.
According to Cleveland EMS, units responded to I-90 and Eddy Road for a crash with a car on fire and ejection.
Ciaccia confirmed the driver of the suspect car was pronounced dead on the scene. He was trapped in a car that also caught fire.
The female driver of the second car was seriously injured, and EMS transported her to University Hospital.
Lt. Mike Norman said the Cleveland Fire Department responded to the crash for the two separate car fires.
One of the cars on fire was at the beginning of the on-ramp. Lt. Norman said the other car fire was at the base of the wall east of Eddy Road and south of the on-ramp.
Our 19 News crew returned to the scene where a scorched concrete barrier, car parts, and crime scene tape appear all that remain.
Bratenahl Police, Cleveland Police, and Cleveland Fire all responded to the scene.
Ciaccia said the incident is still under investigation by the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department Detective Bureau.
The identity of the suspect killed has not been released.

Cleveland, OH
E. 9th Street exit to close Monday, affecting downtown Cleveland commuters through late October
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is preparing to close a ramp into downtown Cleveland that will be a major disruption for the rest of the summer.
19 News spoke with Jacob McCullough, who lives downtown. He said he will now have to give himself much more time for travel.
“Anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes,” McCullough said.
Nathaniel Birach drives into downtown every week from Vermilion and uses the E 9th Street exit.
“On busy weekends it already takes 20 minutes to get through the city,” Birach said. “Having to go 2 exits over potentially is going to be another 20 minutes are so on both ends”
On June 29, the eastbound exit to E. 9th St. will close and is not scheduled to reopen until late October.
According to a spokesperson, ODOT was informed by the contractor earlier this month of the closure, and the work is for the new ramp and a new bridge support pier.
All of this work is a part of the Cleveland Innerbelt Modernization Plan.
ODOT is suggesting a detour of exiting on Ontario, then a right on Carnegie to E. 9th St.
This closure will have major impacts on morning commuters trying to get into downtown, as well as ballgame traffic for the Guardians, and any events at Rocket Fieldhouse.

If you’re currently going through a bit of Cleveland Cavaliers withdrawal, you won’t have to wait much longer. Sure, you won’t see Donovan Mitchell or Evan Mobley, but some of the younger, intriguing players could be seeing the floor in the NBA’s Las Vegas Summer League 2026.
This summer, the games will begin on Thursday, July 9th, and go through Sunday, July 19th. All 76 games will air across ESPN platforms and Amazon Prime. Each team will play at least five games. The first four will take place between July 9th-16th. Semi-Final games will take place on Saturday, July 18th, airing on Amazon Prime, with the Championship game airing on July 19th on ESPN.
The Cleveland Cavaliers Schedule:
The Cavs will kick off their Summer League schedule on Friday, July 10th at 4:30 PM EST vs the Indiana Pacers. The game will air on ESPN2. Their schedule of games will be listed below.
Friday, July 10, 4:30 PM EST vs the Indiana Pacers at the Cox Pavilion, airing on ESPN 2.
Sunday, July 12, 4:00 PM EST vs the Detroit Pistons at the Thomas & Mack Center, airing on Amazon Prime
Monday, July 13, 8:00 PM EST vs the Miami Heat at the Cox Pavilion, airing on Amazon Prime
Wednesday, July 15, 5:30 PM EST vs the New Orleans Pelicans at the Cox Pavilion, airing on Amazon Prime
The Cavs will find out their 5th opponent after their first four games are completed, and will see if they are to move on to the semi-finals for the final weekend.
The Cavaliers Potential Summer League Roster:
While the roster should be announced in a few days, the Cavaliers have been building organizational depth, starting with drafting Meleek Thomas in the second round of the 2026 NBA Draft. The team reportedly signed Ernest Udeh, Jr. out of Miami (FL) to a two-way contract and has added Texas A&M forward Rashaun Agee, and Florida guard Xavian Lee to Exhibit 10 contracts.
Tyrese Proctor is also a possibility to play for the team, but we know he will be playing with the Australian national team this summer. Expect fellow two-way player Tristan Enaruna to play as well but the Cavs may need to fill their final two-way spot as Riley Minix has been reported to sign with ASVEL in France.
Summer League is a great opportunity for players to get eyes on them and show their potential. This is also how the Cavs have succeeded over the years, finding diamonds in the rough who contribute to the main roster down the road. Let’s see if the Cavaliers find another hidden gem in a few weeks.
