Capsule Reports
Improper passing
A Fort Recovery woman and a Muncie man were involved in a car accident Tuesday afternoon east of Portland.
Evelyn R. Will, 53, 2215 Philothea Road, Fort Recovery, told Jay County Sheriff’s Office she was driving east on Division Road, just east of the intersection with county road 400 East, when she saw a 2015 Chevrolet Spark in front of her with its caution lights on. She told police she thought it was a mail carrier, and moved her 2014 Chevrolet Traverse into the left lane to pass it.
Tyler J. Bice, 1210 S. Elm St., Muncie, told police his caution light had been on, but he turned them off and turned on his turn signal to turn his Spark into a driveway at 5118 E. Division Road, when his Spark was struck on the driver side front by Will’s Traverse.
Police attributed the cause of the accident to improper passing by Will. Damage in the 12:40 p.m. accident was estimated between $2,500 and $5,000.
