Goodland, IN woman killed, run over by skid-ster

The Newton County Coroner's Office and Sheriff's Department are investigating a fatal accident that killed a Goodland (IN) woman.

Siegle's husband was reversing the tractor when he accidentally backed over her; unable to see her while she was cleaning snow.

Siegle was pronounced dead at the scene at 9:37 am.
