Driver involved in crash at Grape and Cleveland arrested

ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. -- The driver who was allegedly fleeing from police and caused a crash at Grape and Cleveland roads Tuesday was arrested on an active warrant, according to the Fatal Crash Team.

Investigators say Mishawaka Police were attempting to conduct a traffic stop on a vehicle driven by 29-year-old Kristen Sue Kerr because she was wanted on a felony warrant, reports said.

Officers attempted to conduct the traffic stop as she left a hotel, but she did not pull over.

As Kerr continued north on Grape Road, her vehicle, a Dodge Stratus, collided with a Toyota, which then struck a Mazda, reports said.

The drivers of the Toyota and Mazda suffered minor injuries and refused treatment.

Kerr was taken to the hospital and released. She was taken to the St. Joseph County Jail on the active warrant and for preliminary charges of resisting law enforcement, possession of meth, possession of a syringe or needle, and operating a motor vehicle without obtaining a license.
