ANGOLA, IN (WTVB) – Steuben County, Indiana Sheriff Tim Troyer says there were 22 accidents between 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday night after a combination of freezing rain, light snow and sleet led to icy driving conditions.
Some off duty deputies had to be called in to assist the Indiana State Police and Angola City Police during this very busy time.
There were 10 crashes on I-69 between the Angola exit and the state line with one crash involving injury. Two slide offs were also reported.
10 other crashes and slide offs were reported around the Angola area including one involving a Steuben County ambulance on State Road 827 south of County Road 400 North. The ambulance was responding to an unknown injury crash on I-69 when it lost control, went off the road and struck an earth embankment and mailbox before winding up on its side.
EMS Paramedics Amy Baker and Stephen Bloom were treated for minor injuries at Cameron Hospital and later released.
