Vigo County, IN – Deputies and rescue crews responded to a serious two-vehicle crash Wednesday afternoon that left one driver trapped inside his car near Terre Haute.
According to the Vigo County Sheriff’s Office, the crash occurred around 2:25 p.m. on October 15, 2025, at the intersection of Erie Canal Road and Springhill Drive. A male driver was found trapped inside his vehicle and had to be extricated by Honey Creek Fire/Rescue before being transported by Transcare Ambulance to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
