Loveland, Ohio – In an interview this morning one of the owners of Paxton’s Grill, Kevin Egan, told Loveand Magazine what he knew about the hit-and-run incident Friday evening at the popular restaurant in Historic Downtown Loveland. Paxton’s is located at 126 W Loveland Avenue adjacent to the Town Clock and the Loveland Bike Trail.
The patio awning, fencing, and many of the tables and chairs were destroyed. Loveland police reported last night, “Several patients were transported but thankfully they are stable. Loveland PD investigated as the striking vehicle reportedly fled the scene.”
Eyewitnesses reported the vehicle type, license number, and a description of the driver to police immediately after the incident. Paxton’s has video from a security camera of the incident and it was provided to police. Loveland Magazine has reached out to Loveland Chief of Police, Michael Gabrielson, on the status of the investigation and if an arrest has been made; however, he has not yet responded.
Paxton’s has announced on FaceBook that they will be open this afternoon at 4 PM.
In this drone video taken this morning by CincyPhotography.com, Videographer David Long shared, “Can you believe how fast they got it cleaned up?.”
The debris from the wreck was piled at the rear of Paxton’s on Saturday morning.
Loveland, Ohio – Police and fire responded to this wreck Monday afternoon during light rainfall at West Loveland Avenue and Riverside Drive. One car’s driver side was pinned against a retaining wall, the other side was too damaged to open either door. Loveland/Symmes Firefighters used “Jaws of Life” devices and brute human strength to remove the doors from the vehicle. Two patients with minor injuries were transported to the hospital.
