On September 28, 2021, about 1608 eastern daylight time, a Cessna T210N airplane, N1925U, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near East Sparta, Ohio. The pilot was not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.

He declared an emergency with air traffic control and turned toward Akron-Canton Regional Airport (CAK), North Canton, Ohio. The engine continued to run with partial power for about 2 minutes before it had a total loss of engine power.
