Aboite head-on crash claims both drivers

FORT WAYNE — A head-on, two-car collision left two people dead Wednesday morning in southwest Allen County.

The crash occurred about 6:50 a.m. on Homestead Road just north of Ernst Road, according to the Allen County Sheriff’s Department.

A green Honda Accord being driven north on Homestead by an unidentified man veered across the centerline and into the southbound lane, a witness at the scene told sheriff’s investigators.

That car collided with a silver Honda Accord driven by Marjorie S. Abramowski, 72, of Fort Wayne.

Both Abramowski and the man driving the other car died at the scene, according to the Allen County coroner. Their deaths are the 22nd and 23rd traffic fatalities in the county this year.

There were no passengers in either car.

Abramowski was wearing a seat belt.

The other driver was not, according to the coroner’s office.

The crash remains under investigation.
