Joshua Kent Ironmonger, Tipton, died at the scene of the 2:15 p.m. crash at Ind. 19 about 300 feet south of Dover Avenue, Tipton police reported.

Brown was treated and released from Tipton Hospital.
Angela G. Rose, 41, Tipton, the driver of the Ford Ranger, was trapped in her truck and had to be cut from the wreckage. She suffered injuries to her lower legs and is being treated at Riverview Hospital in Noblesville.
