Truck Driver Fined After Amish Couple Tragedy
William Presswood 87 of Cleveland Tennessee was fined 200 dollars plus costs after a Thanksgiving Eve crash on U S 20 near Lagrange Indiana. The driver faced a two count indictment for misdemeanors related to improper speed and following too closely the horse drawn buggy carrying Harry Bontrager 94 and Alice Lambright 19 who would marry the next day. Bontrager died and Lambright endured days in hospital with serious injuries. The crash led to a push for highway signs warning of horse drawn vehicles used by Amish residents in the area. Presswood was released on 3000 dollar bond after a grand jury indictment and spent days in jail awaiting proceedings.
