Driver in Fatal Buggy Crash Won’t be Charged

DECATUR, Ind. (AP) _ A grand jury won’t file charges against a man who was driving a van that crashed into a buggy in northern Indiana, killing three people.
 
  The April 2012 crash killed three members of the Martin Schwartz. A 3-year-old boy and 5-year-old girl died shortly after the accident, and a 17-year-old boy who initially survived died several days after the crash. The horse also had to be put down.
