Former Ohio State Buckeyes five-star recruit who finished his college career with Big Ten rival involved in deadly ATV accident

A former Ohio State football player was involved in a fatal ATV accident on Friday night.

According to a report from the Pennsylvania State Police, Julian Fleming was operating an ATV when it crashed, resulting in the death of a woman. Fleming sustained “serious injuries” in the accident and was hospitalized.

Fleming was reportedly driving a 2024 Yamaha ATV, with 23-year-old Alyssa Boyd—believed to be his girlfriend—as the passenger. Boyd was pronounced dead at the scene Friday night in Columbia Township, Bradford County.

According to the police report:

“An ATV was traveling northbound on Painter Lick Lane when it collided with a deer that had jumped into the roadway. Neither of the occupants was wearing safety equipment. The operator of the ATV sustained serious injuries and was transported to Guthrie Troy Community Hospital. The passenger sustained extensive injuries from the crash and was pronounced deceased at the scene. A recently deceased deer was located on scene, consistent with the damage observed on the ATV.”
