In that earlier crash, preliminary information indicated a vehicle traveling northbound on South Tibbs Avenue crossed the center line and struck a southbound vehicle head-on, the IndyStar reported. One driver died in the crash.
Tibbs Avenue has also been the scene of a hit-and-run fatality farther north. A crash at the intersection of West 16th Street and North Tibbs Avenue killed 33-year-old Tamara Thomas, according to court documents cited by Yahoo.
