Description
A Plainfield police officer has resigned following the conclusion of the internal investigation into a chase of a suspect that ended in a deadly crash of an uninvolved couple.
The Avon Police Department led the criminal investigation into the crash that happened around 5:45 p.m. Aug. 30 at the intersection of U.S. 40 and Smith Road in Plainfield, killing 78-year-old Barbara Williams and 79-year-old Bennie Joe Williams, of Clayton, Indiana.
The Plainfield Police Department conducted a separate interview review to determine in departmental policies and procedures were followed during the incident.
"We understand that this has been a challenging and emotional time for our community, and we deeply appreciate your patience and trust throughout this process,” Plainfield Chief of Police Kyle Prewitt said in a news release. "It is imperative that we preserve the integrity of our investigations and uphold the values of our department. Our commitment remains to be a police department that our community can be proud of."
