The driver of the other vehicle fled the scene on foot. The Schererville Police Department is leading the investigation.

Jones leaves behind two adult children. His coworkers remember him as a kind, dedicated man who performed his duties with an exceptional level of professionalism.

DHS is working with USDOT to root out and prevent illegal aliens from obtaining these licenses from sanctuary jurisdictions that put American drivers and passengers in danger.
