The initial investigation revealed two Union County Highway Department employees were outside of their vehicle working along Clifton Road when a vehicle driven by Gina Price, 37, of Richmond, struck two Union County Highway Department workers.

Justin Moore, 42, of Brookville, suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. Douglas Scaggs, 62, of Liberty, was also struck and was airlifted to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton with serious injuries.
