Injuries Just Minor in Head-On Collision

(La Porte County, IN) - Two people were hurt in a head on crash between La Porte and Michigan City on Tuesday.  The crash happened about 6 a.m. in the 5800 block of West Johnson Road. 

 

La Porte County Police said Vicki Childress, 62, crossed the center line several times before venturing into the opposite lane and striking an oncoming car head-on.  Her Ford Escape overturned and came to rest in the middle of the road.

 

Police said Childress and the other driver, 35 year old Reimundo Cisneros, both of La Porte, complained of pain but refused medical attention.

 

That stretch of Johnson Road was closed for about one hour after the crash.
