COLUMBIA CITY, Ind. (AP) - An Indiana man and an Ohio woman who were vacationing in Ireland with their spouses have died in a car crash four days into their trip.

Relatives say 62-year-old James Baker of Columbia City, Indiana, died along with Peggy Adams of Delphos, Ohio, who was his cousin's wife. The two cousins had left Friday with their wives for a long-planned trip to Ireland.
