A truck crash Friday in Montgomery County ended with a truck into a house and the driver arrested on warrants.

 

On Friday, just after 1:30 p.m., the Indiana State Police and Montgomery County Sheriff’s Department responded to a crash on US 136 just west of County Road 300 S.

 

A preliminary investigation revealed a 2002 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Naomi Wolf, 35, of Crawfordsville, was traveling westbound on US 136 just west of County Road 300 S. For an unknown reason, the Silverado ran off the north side of the road, overcorrected, and went back across US 136. The Silverado then went off the south side of the road, through a field, and came to stop after hitting a house.

 

Wolf was transported by EMS to a Crawfordsville area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The house was empty at the time of the crash.

 

Upon being released from the hospital, Wolf was transported to Tippecanoe County Jail, where she had active warrants for her arrest.

 

Charges include: Possession of Methamphetamine – Level 6 Felony

Conversion – Class A Misdemeanor

 

This crash is still under investigation. It is believed that impairment is a contributing factor to the crash, however, troopers are awaiting toxicology results.

 

Once the investigation is complete, it will be turned over to the Montgomery County Prosecutor for review and determination of charges, if any, to be filed.

 

 

Trooper Decker was assisted by troopers from the Lafayette Post, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Department, Walnut Township Volunteer Fire Department, and Crawfordsville EMS.
