A car and small pickup collided Tuesday, Sept. 1, at about 5 p.m., reported Batesville Cpl. David Abel, who responded to the accident.

Douglas Schwering, 45, Batesville, was driving his truck north on State Road 229 and turning west on Arlington Drive when he failed to see a car traveling south on 229 operated by Stephanie Fullenkamp, 18, Oldenburg.

Batesville EMS 10 transported Fullenkamp to Margaret Mary Community Hospital.

About 9:50 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 2, another accident involving a car and pick-up occurred, according to Patrolman Jamie Straber, who responded.
