Pensinger was headed north shortly before midnight July 27, 2023, on Westbrook Road when the 1999 Chevrolet Silverado he was driving went off the right side of the road on a curve. The pickup crossed and struck a raised median and hit a 2017 Kia Soul headed northwest on state Route 49 and went off the road, according to a crash report filed by the Ohio State Highway Patrol’s Dayton Post.
The Kia was forced off the right side of the road and struck a traffic sign, the report stated.
Pensinger fled the scene following the crash, according to court records.
A passenger in the Kia, a 33-year-old Trotwood woman, was taken to Miami Valley Hospital with serious injuries. The 51-year-old Dayton woman driving the Kia suffered minor injuries and was taken to Kettering Health Dayton, according to the report.
As part of his plea, a charge of failure to stop after an accident was dismissed.
When Pensinger is sentenced July 1, he also could lose his driver’s license for between one and five years.
