No one was killed



Had the misfortune to cover a single vehicle crash several weeks ago. A family of four was traveling along Huntington County Road 600 W, ( either a blown tire or trying to avoid hitting an animal) caused the Pontiac Mini-Van to leave the road, flipping or rolling onto its roof trapping all persons inside. The van caught fire, one could see the smoke from a mile or so away from the site.

Two good samaritans were able to pull all persons from the vehicle.

The great thing about his horrible crash--if there was one--no one was killed in the accident. One of the passenger lost a foot/toe, that is all. That is just amazing.

I have covered many p.i.'s in my life while working for newspapers, I will have to say that this was one of the worse that I've seen.
