RUSH COUNTY — A 21-year-old Greensburg woman was fatally struck by a car Friday while she was lying in a roadway after she wandered from the scene of a rollover crash.
Before being struck, Colleen Bray was driving a Chevrolet pickup south on Ind. 3 when her car left the road and rolled over, according to a news release from Indiana State Police.
Bray then got out of the pickup, walked north on Ind. 3, and at some point became incapacitated and lied in a northbound lane near the Rush/Decatur County line.
