Just before 10 p.m. Sunday, officers from the Indiana State Police and the Fulton County Sheriff's Office arrived at the scene of an injury-involved crash on State Road 114 near County Road 1600 East.
The accident resulted in the death of two individuals.
The preliminary crash investigation by Master Trooper Todd Trottier revealed that Coleton R. Cahill, 18, of Claypool, IN, was driving a 2015 Jeep Cherokee heading eastbound on State Road 114, with Joselynn S. Hensley, 18, of Rochester, IN, occupying the front passenger seat. For an undetermined reason, the Jeep traveled off the south side of the roadway and struck a tree.
