Overview
- The Hendricks County Sheriff’s Office says a Freightliner semi allegedly ran a red light at US 36 and County Road 525 East, causing a three‑vehicle collision that killed 64‑year‑old Terry Schultz.
- Sukhdeep Singh, identified by authorities as an Indian national, was detained by Indiana State Police and transferred to ICE custody, with prosecutors yet to file charges as the case is reviewed.
- Investigators say the probe remains active and includes analysis of vehicle data, skid marks, and signal timing, with no determination yet on possible alcohol or drug involvement.
- Officials and local reports say Singh obtained an Indiana commercial driver’s license in May 2025 and had prior citations, including multiple speeding tickets, no insurance after a January crash, and no registration.
- DHS called recent deaths tied to non‑citizen commercial drivers “100% preventable,” while federal transportation regulators move to tighten oversight of CDL schools, enforce English proficiency, and review carrier practices.
