Police: Indiana teen crashes into buggy on way to school

GRABILL, Ind. (WANE) — A man riding in a horse and buggy was taken to a hospital in critical condition Tuesday morning after an SUV hit the buggy on Grabill Road in northeast Allen County.

The crash happened just after 7:30 a.m. near the intersection of Grabill Road and Page Road just west of Grabill. That intersection is closed.

According to Captain Steve Stone of the Allen County Sheriff’s Department, a teen on her way to school attempted to pass the buggy on a double yellow line when she saw another car coming in the opposite direction. When she steered back into her own lane, she rear-ended the buggy.

The teen was not injured in the crash.
