MARSHALL CO. – The Indiana State Police is investigating a single-vehicle crash that claimed the life of a Rochester man Monday afternoon.
At approximately 4:30 p.m., troopers responded to calls of a serious vehicle crash on US 31 near 4A Road. A preliminary investigation by Trooper Tyler Vermillion indicates that a white 2013 Dodge was traveling north on US 31 when it ran off the road to the right for an unknown reason, striking a concrete bridge abutment.
Troopers attempted life-saving measures at the scene but the driver, a 35-year-old man Caleb Ingram, of Rochester, was pronounced dead at the scene.
This is an ongoing investigation. Neither alcohol nor drugs are suspected to be factors in this crash.
An autopsy is scheduled for later this week at the Marshall County Forensic Center.
