July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
After several witnesses came forward over the weekend and after further investigation, the Warsaw Police Department determined that the primary cause of Friday morning's accident, in which five people were injured, was the failure of the semi-tractor/trailer driver to stop at the automatic signal.
According to a WPD report, the semi driver, Gabriel M. Bogue, 20, Winchester, ran the red light at the intersection of U.S. 30E and East Center Street at 8:12 a.m. Friday, and collided with a Dodge pickup driven by Chris T. Cramer, 35, Warsaw, that was crossing U.S. 30 on a green traffic signal.
The report indicated Cramer had severe bleeding to the head and Bogue complained of back pain.
Cramer had three passengers in her vehicle, all under age 10.
Cory Cramer, 2, Country Club Drive, Warsaw, suffered a fractured shoulder. Joel Cramer, 5, Country Club Drive, suffered a head injury. Kyle Cramer, 7, Country Club Drive, had minor bleeding to the head, according to the WPD report.
A Kosciusko Community Hospital spokesman said Cory, Kyle and Chris Cramer were under observation Friday but did not know if the Cramers were still in the hospital today.
Joel Cramer was transferred to Lutheran Children's Hospital, Fort Wayne, where he is listed in fair condition today. [[In-content Ad]]
