NEW LEXINGTON, Ohio (WCMH) – A man is dead after a two-vehicle, head-on fatal crash in Perry County early Wednesday morning.

According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol, 22-year-old Ronald Boggs was driving a 2006 Toyota Corolla westbound on State Route 37. At the same time, Joshua Lawrence, 43, was driving a 2018 GMC truck eastbound on SR 37. The truck included a trailer that included three passenger vehicles on it.

At approximately 6:09 a.m. Boggs drove his Toyota left of center and struck the GMC truck head-on near Melon Hill Road in Pike Township, just east of New Lexington, Ohio.

Boggs, of Stockport, Ohio, was taken to Genesis Perry County Medical Center in Somerset, Ohio, but he was unable to survive his injuries and was pronounced dead.

It is unknown if there were any other factors in the crash, which remains under investigation.

Unlike Microsoft's previous Copilot-branded products, Team Copilot isn't so much a point solution as a set of capabilities together aimed at "improving collaboration" and "streamlining project management."

No early-stage startup today is at all likely to become the next OpenAI or Anthropic — their lead is too huge right now in the domain of foundational large language models.
