Another vehicle came over a small hill at a high rate of speed, slid on the icy road surface, and struck Trooper Turner and the tow truck driver. Trooper Turner was killed instantly.
Trooper Turner had served with the Indiana State Police for over nine years and was assigned to the Ligonier post. He was survived by his wife, two sons and daughter.
