Man dead, three others injured, in two-vehicle crash on Allisonville Road

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man was killed early Sunday morning in a two-vehicle crash on Indianapolis’ northeast side, the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department says.

News 8 reached out to the Marion County Coroner’s Office for the identification of the person but received no response as of Jan. 1.

Police say around 1:15 a.m. Sunday, officers were dispatched to the intersection of Allisonville Road and East 66th Street on a report of a possible fatal accident.

Investigators learned that two vehicles were driving southbound when the man’s car bumped into the rear of another vehicle while driving at a high speed. The two vehicles then wrecked.

The man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Three people, two adults and a juvenile, were inside the other vehicle at the time of the crash. They were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say street racing was not a factor in the incident.
