The initial investigation indicated that a 2017 GMC Acadia driven by Adam Peters, 36, of Morristown, was traveling southbound on State Road 3 near County Road 300 North. For an unknown reason, Peters’ vehicle crossed the centerline into the path of a northbound Ford box truck being driven by Jamin Gutherie, 39, North Vernon.

Investigators say the vehicles collided nearly head-on.

Toxicology tests are pending but alcohol and drugs are not believed to be factors.
