CHAMPION, Ohio (WKBN) -- A woman died Monday afternoon after the Champion Township Police Department reported her missing earlier in the day.
A missing person's alert was issued for the 88-year-old woman after she walked away from her home around Warrenton Drive NW around 8 a.m. Police said they were concerned for her safety as she has trouble walking.
