A woman is dead after a truck lost a wheel along an Indiana interstate during morning rush-hour traffic and slammed through the windshield of another vehicle causing it to crash.
The frightening chain of events started about 7:45 a.m. Monday on Interstate 70 in West Indianapolis where Indiana State Police said the driver's side rear wheel broke off a Nissan pick-up truck traveling east and bounced over the median wall into the westbound lanes of traffic.
The broken wheel struck the upper windshield and roof area of a westbound red car, troopers said, causing the roof and windshield to collapse.

The impact caused the car to careen right off the highway into "a steep ditch" and through a fence, troopers reported. The car came to rest on its side about 25 feet from a house.
Photos provided by troopers show the vehicle, its windshield smashed and roof caved in, on its side with tree branches lodged in the engine.
