Woman dies after crash near Muncie injured her, 2 others

The accident happened around 2:30 p.m. on US 35 near Mt. Pleasant.

DELAWARE COUNTY, Ind. — An Anderson woman who was critically injured in a crash southeast of Muncie on Friday has died, according to a post by her husband. 

Tiffany Starkey, 38, of Anderson, died Saturday, our newspaper partners at the Herald Bulletin reported, citing a Facebook post made by her husband, Robbie.

"I lost my best friend, wife and the love of my life today," he wrote. "You will always be remembered and loved. You will live on through our beautiful girls. You touched so many lives in positive ways."

She had been hospitalized in critical condition since Friday afternoon, when she was in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 35 just south of Mount Pleasant. 

The crash happened around 2:30 p.m. Friday.

Indiana State Police investigators say a Ford Transport van driven by 24-year-old Tatyanna Myers of Georgia crossed the center line and collided with the Ford Focus that Starkey was driving. 

Starkey was taken to a Muncie hospital before being transferred to IU Health-Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. 

Myers and a passenger in the van were treated at Ball Memorial Hospital for what were described as non-life-threatening injuries. 

The accident remains under investigation, police said.
