Three people were hurt this morning, Oct. 14, in a two-vehicle crash on Johnson Road at the Indiana Toll Road overpass. Johnson Road between County Road 400 West and County Road 500 West was to be closed this morning until 11 a.m. or so, with traffic being detoured south on 400 West and 500 West to County Road 150 North.
The crash occurred shortly after 8 a.m., according to the LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office, which will relay more information later.
Photojournalist Bob Wellinski said the crash apparently happened when a pickup truck traveling west on Johnson hit a car that was turning east on Johnson from CR 400 West. Center Township Volunteer Fire Department, LaPorte Fire Department, LaPorte County EMS, LaPorte Police, and Indiana State Police were on scene along with county deputies.
