Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) investigators are investigating a fatal crash that has killed one man and injured three others.
Just after 5:30 a.m., IMPD officers were dispatched to the 5300 block of West 46th St. on a serious crash. When officers arrived, they found an unidentified and unresponsive man who was pronounced deceased by EMS personnel. Inside his vehicle, they found two passengers suffering from only minor injuries. Those passengers were transported to Eskenazi Hospital in good condition. The driver of the second vehicle, identified as Anderson Hernandez-Garci, 20, of Indianapolis suffered only minor injuries and was last listed in good condition.
Preliminarily investigators believe that the silver vehicle driven by the deceased driver was traveling east on 46th St. and may have crossed the center line striking the second blue vehicle that was traveling west on 46th St. Investigators suspect that the deceased driver may have been operating under the influence. The Marion County Coroner’s Office will positively identify the deceased driver, and determine a manner of death after an autopsy is performed.
