16-year-old killed in Bargersville crash

BARGERSVILLE, Ind. — Officials in Johnson County are investigating a crash that left a teenager dead Sunday morning.

Per the Bargersville Fire Department, crews responded to a crash at the intersection of Old Plank Road and Carlisle Street around 5 a.m. When first responders made it to the scene, they found a motorist who had crashed a car into a garage.

The Johnson County Coroner’s Office identified the driver who died in the crash as 16-year-old Elijah Patrick Mobley of Indianapolis.

The Bargersville Police Department indicated that an off-duty sheriff’s deputy in his personal car saw Mobley driving erratically on State Road 144 with a blown tire before the crash.

While officers were enroute to investigate the off-duty deputy’s report, Mobley lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the garage.

Alcohol may have been a factor in the incident, as police reported that an open container was found in the vehicle Mobley was driving. BPD indicated the results of toxicology tests on Mobley are pending.

As of this article’s publication, no additional information on the crash had been made available.
