Columbus woman injured, then arrested following wreck near Napoleon

Napoleon, IN — A Columbus woman was injured and later arrested following a one-vehicle crash at County Road 850 North and Old Michigan Road south of Napoleon over the weekend.

The Ripley County Sheriff’s Office says 53-year-old Paula Myers-Ping drove her pickup truck off the road and into a ditch, which caused the vehicle to flip onto the driver’s side.

Myers-Ping was treated at the scene and then transported to Margaret Mary Health for further treatment of minor injuries.

The Sheriff’s Office says she was later arrested and charged with OVI.

The Napoleon Fire Department and Ripley County EMS also responded to that accident scene.
