Indiana Sheriff's accident blamed on tick-borne disease acquired from a Lone Star tick bite...
"Combs became progressively more ill over a period of weeks, but doctors couldn’t figure out why. After suffering a high fever, Combs lost consciousness while driving home from the doctor Aug. 13 and crashed, totaling the Chevy Tahoe he drives."
"Combs said last week that doctors have determined a tick bite led to his illness."
