A female motorist, Rebecca Fourness, of Fair Oaks, Indiana was killed and her four year old son injured, when a semi-truck driven by forty year old Wilfredo Lozano of Oak Forest, failed to slow his semi in a "traffic slowdown" and rear ended the Fourness vechicle and two other vehicles on Interstate 65 near Lowell, Indiana on July 29, 2008. Fourness died in Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood from severe head injuries. Also injured in the crash were John Huhn and his passenger, Jim Gaskins, who were in a Toyota Highlander SUV and James Knight, the driver of a Ford F-250 pick up truck. All three vehicles were struck by the semi. After colliding with the vehicles, the semi jackknifed and rammed into a guardrail trapping the Fourness vehicle between the tractor and trailer portions of the semi according to Indiana State Police Sargeant Richard Broughton.
