NAPPANEE, Ind. (WPXI) – U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski was one of four people killed in a crash in northern Indiana on Wednesday, authorities said. She was 58. Walorski, a Republican who has represented Indiana’s 2nd congressional district since 2013, was a passenger in an SUV traveling southbound in Nappanee at about 12:40 p.m. EDT when the vehicle collided with a northbound vehicle that veered left of the center line, according to a news release from the Elkhart County Sheriff’s Office. All three occupants in the southbound vehicle died as a result of their injuries, and the driver of the northbound vehicle died at the scene, the sheriff’s office said. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy tweeted a statement “with a heavy heart” from Walorski’s office. “Please keep her family in your thoughts and prayers,” the statement read, adding that there would be no further comment from the representative’s office.
