The early morning collision happened near Huntingburg

Three people are dead after a head-on crash in Dubois County. WNIN’s John Gibson has the story:

The tragedy happened Wednesday morning on U.S. 231, just south of Huntingburg.

Indiana State Police say a preliminary investigation indicates 52-year-old Macario Sandoval of Huntingburg was driving a truck southbound on US 231 and 34-year-old Bryant Doane of Santa Claus was driving a car northbound.

The ISP says Doane attempted to pass another vehicle and hit Sandoval's truck head-on.

Sandoval, his passenger, 53-year-old Matilde Valdes of Huntingburg, and Doane all died from their injuries.

The vehicle Doane was passing was not involved in the crash.

Autopsies were scheduled for Friday.
