FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — A 29-year-old Indianapolis man died Monday morning after crashing head-on with another vehicle on State Road 37 in Fishers.

Officers with the Fishers Police Department responded shortly after 3:30 a.m. Monday to a crash involving a Dodge Charger and a Toyota Scion in the northbound lanes of State Road 37 just north of 135th Street.
