Event narrative (NOAA)
Heavy rains on July 12th through the 14th caused Tymochtee Creek to go into flood in western Wyandot County. State Route 53 was flooded by up to 6 feet of water approximately four miles west of Upper Sandusky near the intersection of Township Road 103. A 46 male apparently drove his truck into the flood waters around 2 am on July 14th. The man was later found deceased about 200 feet north of the highway. His truck was found completely submerged in the flood waters.
