A Lebanon teen was killed Tuesday morning in a motor vehicle crash outside of Scio, Linn County Sheriff Jim Yon said.
Yon said that at 11:16 a.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4, his deputies reponded to the crash on Fish Hatchery Drive near Ede Road outside of Scio. The driver and lone occupant was Carson Gary Ceboll, 18, of Lebanon. Ceboll was driving a 2000 Honda Odyssey minivan westbound on Fish Hatchery Drive when he lost control and rolled the minivan into a tree.
An investigation indicated that ice on the roadway was likely a factor, Yon said. Ceboll was found to be wearing his seatbelt and all airbags had deployed. He was pronounced deceased on scene. He was taken to Huston-Jost Funeral Home in Lebanon. His family was notified.
Linn County was assisted by Lebanon Fire Department, Scio Fire Department, Linn County Road Department and AA Towing.
Yon reminded drivers to be cautious during the cold winter months. “Roads can be icy and dangerous even during dry conditions.”
