Funeral to be held for Ohio teen killed in scooter crash
LEWIS CENTER, Ohio (WSYX) — Family and friends will gather to remember a 17-year-old Olentangy Orange High School student who was killed while riding a scooter in Orange Township.
Anastasia Jehorek died Feb. 27 along state Route 750, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol. Troopers said she was riding in the side safety lane when she was hit by a car.
Jehorek’s family is remembering her as someone who always had a smile.
“I think she brought a lot of light to people’s lives, and that’s just a light that’s no longer with us,” said Anthony Bowling, Jehorek’s uncle.
The driver, Aviv Bukobza, has been charged with vehicular manslaughter.
