* June 22, 2:55 p.m.: James D. Best, 62, Poland, was eastbound on CR 1000 South in a 2005 Subaru XL7 when he met a westbound 1994 Chevrolet driven by Gary L. Grove, 58, Poland.

The two vehicles met in a corner just west of CR 550 East. Road marks indicate Grove was left of center, and not only struck Best's vehicle, but forced it off the road and into a guardrail. Best said he had nowhere to go but off the road.

Damage $5,001-$10,000.

* June 22, 4:10 p.m.: Everando Martinez was driving a GMC van eastbound on I-70. He said a rock flew through the driver's side window and hit him in the eye. Other drivers said he slammed on his brakes and stayed in the fast lane.

Bruce A. Burry, 46, Livonia, Mass., was the third vehicle behind Martinez. He was unable to stop his 2005 Ford F350, rear-ending the 2011 Dodge van driven by Russ A. Clements, 36, Mooresville. This pushed Clements into the 2008 Ford Focus driven by Carolyn L. West, 62, Mount Vernon.

The Martinez vehicle was undamaged.

Damage $10,001-$25,000.

Schuessler, 21, Fishers, was westbound on U.S. 36 near the intersection of U.S. 231 in a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am when he merged into the turn lane to enter a private lot. He merged in front of the 2008 Dodge Avenger driven by Julia M. Costello, 24, Clinton. He said he did not see Costello.
