A Michigan City man has been charged in connection with a March crash that left a LaPorte man dead. LaPorte County sheriff’s deputies say that on March 12, Eric A. Adair, 24, was driving northwest on U.S. 35, when he went left of center and crashed head-on with a vehicle driven by Nathan Blount, 32, near Nicomas Path.
Both drivers were airlifted to a regional hospital, but Blount died the following day. Now, Adair has been charged with operating while intoxicated causing death, reckless homicide, and never receiving a valid driver’s license. Police say Adair self-surrendered at the LaPorte County Jail on Monday.
