Fulton County emergency personnel were dispatched to the area of County Road 300 North and County Road 600 West on a report of a vehicle overturned in a water-filled ditch.
First responders arrived about 3:30 p.m. Thursday and located the driver, identified as Linda Migonis, 79, of Rochester, deceased at the scene.
A preliminary investigation conducted by the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office indicates that Migonis was operating a 2015 Fiat northbound on County Road 600 West, south of County Road 300 North.

The investigation remains ongoing; however, foul play is not suspected at this time.
Agencies assisting at the scene included the Indiana State Police, Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Aubbeenaubbee Township Fire Department, Rochester Fire Department, Parkview EMS, and the Fulton County Coroner’s Office.
