Police Say Speed Played Factor In Fatal Accident

Last updated on Wednesday, June 22, 2016

(JENNINGS CO.) - The cause of a wreck that left a Crothersville man dead Monday afternoon in northern Jennings County remains under investigation.

But police believe speed was a factor causing the crash that killed 21-year-old Paul Tyler Ent.

Ent died when the 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue he was driving north on County Road 275W near Scipio left the road, hit an embankment, became airborne and landed on the roof of the driver's side, according to a report from Officer Anthony Maberry with the Jennings County Sheriff's Department.

Ent's brother, 29-year-old Jared S. Honey of Seymour, was a passenger in the car but declined treatment at the scene, police said.
