A 46-yr old woman who got her Drivers License reinstated in 2020 plowed clean through a home last week, back to front, and only came to a stop when she struck another vehicle.
She killed a 74-yr old man and his great-grandson, age 5, inside the residence. They were pronounced dead at the scene.
The child's father and an 18-month old baby in the home were also injured and were airlifted to Indianapolis.
The family had gotten together at the home to prepare everything for an upcoming yard sale.
The boy's grandmother said: “It was like a movie, where you see glass and things are shattering and you’ve got the dust and you’re looking around and there’s bodies, and it’s like I’ll never forget that. That will never be out of my mind.”
Another family member said “She drove through the back of the house, through the house, out the front and hit everybody, then got out of her car and took off..."
The woman "was arrested at the scene and put into a police car, but escaped after she was able to get her left wrist out of the handcuff, Montpelier Chief of Police Chris Snyder told WTHR 13. She made a run for it, but only got a few yards before she was caught."
