YORKTOWN, Ind. — Delaware County authorities said a sport-utility vehicle was traveling faster than 100 mph when it left a rural road and struck a retaining wall, killing three people and injuring three others.

Sheriff’s Office Lt. Arlan Johnson also told The Star Press Tuesday that he believes the Cadillac Escalade driven by 46-year-old driver Lisa Case, who died in the crash, of Anderson also ran a stop sign about a quarter mile from the spot where it crashed Sunday and rolled over.

Also killed in the crash south of Yorktown were 46-year-old Kent Kalley and 12-year-old Andrew Lackey, both of Yorktown.

One of the surviving passengers, 13-year-old Savannah Kalley of Yorktown, remained in critical but stable condition Tuesday at Indianapolis Methodist Hospital. The two others were in good condition at Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis.
