CLARKSVILLE – A Louisville woman is listed in critical condition after her vehicle collided with the concrete barrier wall in a single-vehicle crash Thursday night on I-65 in Clark County.
Shortly before 8 p.m., Clark County authorities responded to a crash involving a Toyota passenger car that collided with the barrier wall on I-65 southbound near the three-mile-marker. The vehicle was reported to be on fire, with the driver still inside.
When first responders arrived, they removed the driver, 55-year-old Cheyenne Brown, and extinguished the flames.
Brown was rushed to University Hospital with life-threatening injuries and is currently listed in stable but critical condition.
An Indiana State Police crash reconstructionist was called to the scene to assist with the investigation.
A preliminary investigation shows the Toyota was southbound on U.S. 31 from Lewis and Clark Parkway and attempted to merge onto southbound I-65. For an unknown reason, the car continued across all interstate lanes before colliding with the median barrier wall. Â
This crash remains under investigation.
The Indiana State Police was assisted by the Clarksville Police Department, the Clark County Sheriff’s Department, the Clarksville Fire Department, and New Chapel EMS.
