INDIANAPOLIS — Trash talk over NASCAR versus IndyCar may have led to a domestic violence situation Sunday, according to a Johnson County (Ind.) Sheriff’s Office news release.

Deputies responded around 8 p.m. to an incomplete 911 call from a Franklin, Ind., home, the release said.

A woman told deputies that she and her fiance had been drinking all day.
