HANCOCK COUNTY, Ind. (WISH) - I-70 eastbound has reopened after a fatal vehicle accident closed all lanes for about 4 hours Sunday morning.

Officials say 56-year-old Phillip Jones' semi broke down late last night, and was parked off the side of eastbound I-70.

Early Sunday morning, a PT cruiser hit the semi at high speeds and went under truck, crushing the car and killing the driver of the PT Cruiser. The driver has not yet been identified.

The incident occurred around 4:45 a.m. Sunday on I-70 eastbound at the 106 mile marker, near SR 9. I-70 eastbound was closed for a few hours near the Greenfield exit while crews responded to the crash.
