A dune buggy accident in Green has turned fatal.
Summit County Sheriff's Deputies say alcohol could be to blame for the Sunday evening crash that sent Mark Campbell, 50, of Green, and his 10-year old passenger to the hospital. Campbell died Wednesday.
No word on the boy's condition at Akron Children's Hospital.
Deputies say Campbell was on private property in the 3800 block of Massillon Road when he lost control and hit a tree.
