The Hamilton County Coroner's Office has released the names of the four people killed when a car plunged into Mill Creek north of the Western Hills Viaduct on Aug. 15.
The victims, who died at the scene of the single-vehicle crash Saturday, were identified as Javae Thomas, 19; DeMarco Tapplar, 22; Demonte Brady, 19; and Khiel Ivory, 21.
A 27-year-old woman survived the crash. A witness riding a bus across the Western Hills Viaduct called 911 after spotting the woman on a portion of the car that remained above the water in the Mill Creek.
According to the 911 call, the woman told the witness she had been stranded on the vehicle for more than an hour, waving down passersby for help. She also said the others in the car were dead. The woman was taken
to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center with minor injuries.
The crash remains under investigation.
