At about 4:30 P.M. Monday evening the Indiana State Police and other agencies responded to a two-vehicle crash on State Road 64 near Eckerty.

Trooper Austin Collin’s preliminary crash investigation revealed that a maroon 2017 Ford F-150 driven by Gerald Jarvis, 86, of Evansville, was traveling in the westbound lane of State Road 64. For an unknown reason, Jarvis is believed to have crossed the center line into the eastbound lane and sideswiped a black 1999 Chevrolet Camaro driven by Ashtin Aders, 17, of Saint Meinrad. After the initial impact, the Camaro ran off the road into the side ditch and the Ford flipped over onto it’s top.

The rear passenger of the Camaro, Riley Mullis, 18, of Bristow, was pronounced deceased at the scene by the Crawford County Coroner. Jarvis was air lifted to University of Louisville Hospital, Kentucky where he is being treated for his injuries. Aders and the front passenger, Connor Mullis, 19, of Bristow, were transported to Jasper Memorial Hospital for minor injuries. All occupants were properly restrained and alcohol/drugs are not believed to be a factor.
