The initial investigation by Trooper Matt Holley and Sgt.

The vehicle spun before entering the northbound lanes of I-65. Sneed’s vehicle was struck head-on by a blue 2013 Honda CRV being driven by Anthony Bonadonna, age 72, Arlington Heights, Illinois.
As a result of the collision, Sneed was transported by ambulance to Columbus Regional Hospital where she soon succumbed to her injuries. Anthony Bonadonna and his wife, Diana Bonadonna, age 56, were both transported to Schneck Medical Center in Seymour, Indiana before being transferred to an Indianapolis area hospital for treatment of their serious injuries. Their conditions are unknown at this time.
The northbound lanes of I-65 were closed for approximately two hours for crash investigation and cleanup. It is unknown if road conditions at the time played a role in the crash.
The Sneed family has been notified.
