Mason Alexander, a former Hamilton Southeastern football star who had recently joined the University of Pittsburgh football team, died Saturday in a car crash in Fishers. The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office (HCSO) said they responded to a report of a car crash in the 10900 block of Florida Road, near Southeastern Parkway and Interstate 69, around 9 p.m. March 1. Police said preliminary investigation revealed that a 2016 BMW 340 was heading south on Florida Road from 113th Street. At the same time, a 2015 Toyota Rav4 was heading north on Florida Road, near Geist Park. The HCSO said the BMW drove into the northbound lane and started to pass a southbound car in front of it. Police said the BMW pulled to the right to avoid hitting the Toyota and then over corrected, resulting in the vehicle rotating and driving off the east side of the road. The Toyota veered off the east of the road to try and avoid the crash and ended up hitting a mailbox. Police said the BMW slid through the grass and hit a tree, resulting in the BMW catching on fire.
