An Indianapolis man was killed in a crash on Interstate 74 near Greensburg on Saturday when his semi crashed into the rear of a stopped semi’s trailer.

Troopers say that traffic was slowed because of two earlier accidents at about 11:25 a.m., when a truck driven by 37-year-old Kevin J. Porter of Indianapolis failed to stop for the slowed traffic and struck the rear of a truck driven by 41-year-old Jason M. Cranfill of Seymour.

Porter was taken to Decatur Memorial Hospital in Greensburg where he was pronounced dead. Cranfill suffered minor injuries in the crash.
