WIFE OF INDIANA GOLF PRO, CHRIS SMITH, DIES IN CAR ACCIDENT ON INTERSTATE 69 NEAR ANGOLA
The wife of Peru resident and PGA golf professional, Chris Smith, was killed and his children severely injured in a crash on Interstate 69 near Angola, Indiana. Beth Smith was killed while returning from a Father's Day visit with her family in Toledo, Ohio and the SUV she was driving collided with a Greyhound bus transporting a semipro football team from Canada.
Smith's children, Abigail and Cameron, were transported by helicopter to Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne, where they were listed in critical condition late Sunday. Their father, Chris Smith, has been competing in the PGA since 1991.
