(La Porte County, IN) - An SUV traveling in a grassy median struck a La Porte County Highway Department snow plow truck on Thursday. The driver who caused the crash was taken into custody.

La Porte County Police say the plow truck was struck at around 6 a.m. while it was stopped between the westbound and eastbound lanes of U.S. 30 in Hanna. After seeing the vehicle coming toward him, the plow driver, Lee Wood, 55, put the truck in reverse, but was not able to avoid the collision. The front of the westbound SUV hit the plow blade.

Police said the driver of the other vehicle appeared very drowsy and his eyes were red and glassy. Israel Guzman, 27, of Chicago, was arrested for not being a licensed driver. Investigators are waiting for blood test results to determine if he was impaired. Police said Guzman had traveled a half mile in the grassy median prior to impact.

Thankfully, there were no major injuries in the accident.
