Written by on November 14, 2026

A high-speed crash involving two vehicles on Interstate 65 southbound in Lake County late Friday night sent one vehicle into a ditch, with one person possibly trapped inside. The crash, near mile marker 260.5, was reported at 10:18 p.m. on Friday, November 13.

A caller told dispatchers that a vehicle door could not be opened and that one person was possibly trapped. One of the vehicles came to rest in a ditch along the right-hand shoulder. Fire and EMS units responded to the scene, and county units were directed to fire operations for the call.

Radio traffic mentioned a gray 2021 Ford Escape registered to the caller. Dispatchers noted a busy night on the highways, with three significant accidents working at the same time on three different highways.

There is no confirmed word yet on injuries, and officials have not released any names. This is a developing story, and 107.3 VIP will update it as more information is confirmed.
