GREENVILLE — A truck driver is dead following an accident at a Greenville, Ohio, business.

Shawn P. Davis, 44, of New Vienna, Ohio, was killed as a result of injuries suffered at Beauty Systems Group, 5805 Jaysville-St. Johns Road.

At 7:46 a.m. on June 20, Greenville Police officers, the Greenville Fire Department, Greenville Township Rescue, and CareFlight were dispatched to the business on a report that a subject had been hit and pinned by a truck. After being stabilized, Davis was flown by CareFlight to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton.
