A two-vehicle crash in Fayette County killed a 17-year-old and injured a man from Springboro Saturday.

The Wilmington Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol identified the victim as Marcus Bentley, 17, from Washington Court House.

Crews responded to reports of a fatality crash around 6:55 a.m. on State Route 753 between U.S. 35 and Robinson Road in Union Twp.
