Muncie man killed in Thursday morning crash
MUNCIE, IN — A Muncie man was killed on the morning of Thursday, Nov. 12, in a one-car accident along East Memorial Drive. According to Jeff Stanley, chief deputy for the Delaware County Sheriff's Department, deputies were sent to the scene of the crash, near the Muncie Bypass, shortly before 9 a.m. Stanley said the driver — Raymond Alexander Crosby, 28 — was traveling eastbound on Memorial Drive "at a high rate of speed" when he lost control of his Toyota Corolla just west of the ramp leading from the bypass. The car struck a guardrail on the south side of Memorial Drive and then continued into a wooded area, striking several trees, before overturning and coming to rest on its driver's side, the chief deputy said. Investigators believe Crosby was ejected from the vehicle when it overturned. He was pronounced dead at the scene at 9:19 a.m., according to Delaware County Coroner Gavin Greene.

Muncie dad gets 28 years for convictions stemming from child's death
MUNCIE, IN — A Muncie father on Friday, Nov. 13, was sentenced to 28 years in prison for his conviction stemming from his 5-year-old daughter's shooting death. A Delaware Circuit Court 5 jury on Oct. 13 found Jacob Curtis Grayson, 32, guilty of neglect of a dependent resulting in death, a Level 1 felony carrying up to 40 years in prison, and three other counts of neglect of a dependent, a Level 6 felony with a maximum 30-month sentence. He was sentenced Friday by Judge Thomas Cannon Jr. Testimony indicated Grayson's daughter, Crystal, was fatally shot in the head on July 26, 2022, after her 6-year-old brother removed a loaded handgun from a safe in their parents' bedroom. Deputy prosecutors Eric Overpeck and Michael Bozoian said Grayson and his wife, Kimberly, failed to take proper steps after the boy had accessed the safe on earlier occasions. At Friday's hearing, Overpeck discussed the effect of such a case on emergency responders. "The expectation that first responders can be immersed in suffering and loss daily and not be touched by it is as unrealistic as expecting to be able to walk through water without getting wet," he said. After the sentencing, Delaware
