Accident at local manufacturing company claims life of man.

On October 12th at approximately 10 AM, deputies and rescue personnel were dispatched to Advics manufacturing at 10550 James Adams Street in reference to an unconscious person. Upon arrival, a male subject by the name of Kenneth Crowe (62 years old) was discovered laying on the ground behind the rear of a trailer. A person nearby discovered Crowe and attempted CPR prior to the arrival of first responders. Crowe was transported to Regional hospital, and later pronounced deceased. Video of the incident shows Crowe climbing on the rear of the trailer, and appears to attempt to lock the door, at which time he fell backwards landing on the concrete. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Crowe family. John Plasse Vigo County Sheriff
