Indiana State Police have identified the person killed in a Sunday (February 23, 2020) afternoon crash on I-70 as 32-year-old Ashley Williams, of Marshall, Illinois. The crash involved her passenger vehicle and tractor-trailer near mile marker one. Traffic was slowed in the area due to an earlier accident in Illinois at mile marker 148. The tractor-trailer driven by 54-year-old Sergiy S. Shadrin, 54, of Newmarket, Ontario, was traveling westbound on Interstate 70 in the driving lane near the state line with its hazard lights activated because of slow traffic. Shadrin told police he felt an impact in the rear of his semi and immediately stopped. Williams was traveling directly behind the tractor-trailer and failed to observe slowed traffic, running into the rear of the rig. She died at the scene.
