North Lima man now facing charges in fatal crash
GIRARD, Ohio (WKBN) – A North Lima man answered to charges in a fatal crash last November. Joshua Johnston, 37, is charged with aggravated vehicular homicide, a third-degree felony, and vehicular assault, a fourth-degree felony, as well as failure to yield and a seatbelt violation. Charges against Joshua Johnston were filed March 26 in Girard Municipal Court, and he was arraigned on Wednesday. Johnston was driving a 2017 Ford Fusion southbound on Warner Road on Nov. 10, 2024, when he failed to yield to a 2022 Subaru Crosstrek traveling eastbound on state Route 82, according to a report from the Ohio State Highway Patrol. The force of the crash pushed the Fusion off the road and into a ditch. A passenger, Miranda Zullo, 35 of Youngstown, was pronounced dead at the scene. Another passenger, 13-year-old Myle Johnston from Struthers, was transported to the hospital with serious injuries. She has since been released from the ICU, and her mother said she is doing much better. Johnston has been incarcerated at the Belmont Correctional Institution after he was sentenced in December to a year in prison for breaking into the Smith Township home of his ex-girlfriend. He is set to be released from prison on November 17. Johnston is set to appear in court again for a preliminary hearing in his crash case on July 2.
