A former Warsaw woman was killed Wednesday when her Dodge Caravan collided with a semi tractor trailer in Columbia City.
Kitsy E. Neff, 43, of 1582 W. Hanley Road, Mansfield, Ohio, and formerly of Warsaw, died at 11:55 a.m. Wednesday in Parkview Hospital, Fort Wayne, from injuries suffered in the accident.
According to a Columbia City Police Department spokeswoman, Neff was westbound on U.S. 30 just east of Ind. 9 around 9 p.m. when her vehicle struck the truck. The driver of the semi, Ronald Griffin, 45, of Markham, Ill., reported no injuries.
Neff was transported to Parkview Hospital, Fort Wayne, by helicopter.
The cause of the crash is still under investigation. Both drivers were tested for alcohol and drugs but the police spokeswoman said the test results have not yet returned.
Neff's obituary appears on page 3A of today's Times-Union.
