Driver Killed in Early Morning Collision

(La Porte County, IN) - A driver was killed in a single-vehicle crash this morning in La Porte County.

 

La Porte County Police said the investigation shows the driver was headed eastbound on 1000 North in a 2012 Range Rover when the vehicle veered right into a ditch, where it continued before crashing into several trees and overturning in Springfield Township.

 

The driver, who was the only person in the vehicle, was pronounced dead at the scene. So far, the name of the driver is being withheld until next of kin have been notified about the fatality.

 

Authorities noted that a toxicology test of a blood sample taken from the victim, which is standard procedure in any fatal motor vehicle crash, will determine if alcohol or drugs were involved in the accident.
