Anderson man killed in I-69 crash near Pendleton

The single-car crash happened around 1:30 p.m. Saturday just south of State Road 38.

MADISON COUNTY, INDIANA, Ind. — An Anderson man was killed in a single-car crash along Interstate 69 near Pendleton on Saturday.

Around 1:30 p.m. on June 17, Indiana State Police received a call about the crash along I-69 northbound at the 217 mile-marker, just south of State Road 38. 

ISP troopers and Pendleton Police Department officers responded to the scene. A preliminary investigation determined a 2010 Honda Fit driven by 33-year-old Matt D. Fields-Stone, of Anderson, was traveling northbound on I-69 in the left lane prior to the crash, state police said.

Fields-Stone attempted to change lanes, noticed another car, and swerved back before losing control. The car left the interstate and rolled, and Fields-Stone was pronounced dead at the scene by the Madison County coroner.

An ISP investigation determined Fields-Stone was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, police said.

All northbound lanes of the interstate were closed for several hours after the crash.
