WARSAW — Traffic accident reconstruction can occasionally be highly complicated for police investigators and that was the case when officers began investigating the six-vehicle accident on SR 15 on Tuesday that seriously injured two people.

The Kosciusko County Sheriff's Office released a dizzying recap on Wednesday of the chain reaction accident involving a car, a semi-tractor-trailer, two SUVs, and two pickup trucks.

One officer described the narrative to reporters as a "doozy."

The narrative explained the following: Vehicle #1 was southbound on SR 15 and crossed the centerline, colliding with vehicle #2 and vehicle #4. Vehicle #3 attempted to avoid the collision but collided with vehicle #4. Vehicle #3 (the truck) overturned and then struck vehicle #6. The driver of Vehicle #5 saw the collision and began to brake to avoid hitting Vehicle #4 but was struck by Vehicle #6 after Vehicle #6 was struck by Vehicle #3. That impact pushed vehicle #6 into vehicle #5.

Among those injured were 28-year-old Larry L. Scripter, of Warsaw, and 44-year-old Lilia Martinez, of Claypool, both of whom suffered internal injuries and and were hospitalized.
