A 28-year-old man was killed Saturday after a two-vehicle crash on US 24 in Cass County.
According to a press release from the Cass County Sheriff's Office, on July 5 their dispatch was contacted just after 12 p.m. about a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of County Road 600 E and US 24. An initial scene assessment found a northbound 2011 Cheverlot Silverado driven by Kobi Martindale, 21, of Kewanna, crossed the eastbound lanes of US 24 before entering the westbound lanes, failing to yield the right of way to a westbound 2013 Harley-Davidson motorcycle driven by James Dolmanet, 28, of Wabash.
The Chevrolet came to a stop in the intersection and the Harley Davidson came to a stop northwest of the intersection. Martindale and his passenger refused medical treatment at the scene. Due to Dolmanet's life-threatening injuries he received in the crash a medical helicopter was summoned, however, Dolmanet was pronounced deceased before the helicopter was able to transport him to a trauma center.
The roadway was closed for approximately two hours for the investigation and removal of debris from the scene. The Cass County Sheriff's Office crash reconstructionist is still investigating the crash. Impaired driving is not believed to have been a factor.
