Arcanum – On October 27, 2012 at approximately 1:27 p.m. Darke County
Deputies, along with New Madison Fire and Tri-Village Rescue, were
dispatched to US127 and SR 503 in reference to a two vehicle injury
accident involving a semi and a car. Mutual aid from Arcanum Fire

Preliminary investigation revealed that a 2007 Chevy Malibu, driven by

failed to stop at the stop sign at the intersection of US127 and struck
a 2009 International semi, driven by Don A. Bailey (43) of Tallahassee,
FL, which was northbound on US127. Wright’s vehicle struck the
front of the semi trailer and was caught underneath the trailer when it
was then flipped off the northeast corner of the intersection.
Wright was ejected from her vehicle and her passenger, Daryn Wright
(13) of Arcanum, was trapped inside the over turned vehicle.
Daryn Wright was extricated and treated by Tri-Village Rescue, along
with New Madison Fire and Arcanum Fire. Daryn Wright was then
transported by CareFlight to Dayton Children’s Hospital, where he is
listed in fair condition. Lisa Wright succumbed to her injuries
and was pronounced dead at the scene. Bailey was also treated by
Tri-Village rescue and refused treatment.
This accident remains under investigation by the Darke County Sheriff’s
Office and the Darke County Coroner’s Office.
