(Milan, Ind.) – A Dillsboro man has been identified as the victim of a fatal crash on State Road 101.

Indiana State Police were dispatched to the accident early Monday morning near Milan.

Troopers say Philip Jerauld, 41, of Dillsboro, was traveling southbound on State Road 101 near County Road 50 South when he failed to negotiate a curve and left the side of the roadway.

Jerauld was ejected from the vehicle after striking a tree.

He was pronounced dead at the scene by the Ripley County Coroner’s Office.

Investigators believe the crash took place Sunday night around 9:30 p.m. However, the vehicle was not observed off the roadway until the early morning hours on Monday.

Speed is believed to be a factor in the crash.

The investigation is ongoing.
