Flash Flood in Hamilton County, Indiana

RTV6 reported that a Noblesville man and a teenage girl were killed in a one-car crash after encountering flooding on a Hamilton County road early Saturday morning. The man, 39, was driving with three juveniles on Promise Road north of 181st Street just before 12:30 AM EDT. The high water caused his car to go off the road and strike a mailbox and utility pole, officials with the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office said. He was taken to Riverview Hospital where he died of his injuries. One of the passengers was a 16-year-old girl who was in the back seat of the car. She also died of her injuries. The other two juvenile passengers were taken to a Fishers hospital with minor injuries.

The last widespread rains of the month were the result of a developing low pressure area that moved through the state on the 26th and early on the 27th. Numerous flooding problems developed quickly across mainly northern sections of central Indiana. People were rescued from cars and homes were flooded in the Muncie area and other areas of east central Indiana. Much of the state along and north of Interstate 70 received 2 to 5 inches of rain. Two individuals perished near Noblesville when their automobile hit water on a road and crashed into a telephone pole.
