The Wabash County Sheriff’s Department is investigating a two-vehicle accident that occurred early Sunday afternoon at the intersection of U.S. 24 and Wabash County Road 100S, otherwise known as Falls Avenue. Police say four were hospitalized in that accident, including an 11-year-old passenger.

The accident reportedly took place around 12:37 p.m. on Sunday, March 18, when the Sheriff’s Department says a 17-year-old driver disregarded a stop sign at the southbound intersection of County Road 100S and U.S. 24. The driver then reportedly drove into the median crossover and disregarded a yield sign, colliding with another vehicle in the eastbound lane of U.S. 24, the Sheriff’s Department said. That vehicle was driven by a 48-year-old Fort Wayne resident, Gricelda Rivera, who was transported to Parkview Wabash Hospital. Two other passengers riding in Rivera’s vehicle were transported to Parkview Wabash, including an 11-year-old, the Sheriff’s Department says.

The 17-year-old driver of the first vehicle also suffered injuries and was transported to Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne, the Sheriff’s Department said.

The Sheriff’s Department said the crash investigation was ongoing as of Monday afternoon.
