Republican Rep Jackie Walorski from Indiana Killed in Car Crash

Rep. Jackie Walorski died in a car accident in his home state that claimed the lives of 3 others… according to police.

A fatal two-car crash happened Wednesday afternoon near an intersection in Nappanee, Indiana, killing all 3 people in the Republican congressman’s SUV.

The Elkhart County Sheriff says Walorski was on his way with his district manager, Zachery Pottsand his director of communications, Emma Thomson, when another car hit their car head on.

The driver of the other car, a 56-year-old woman, was also pronounced dead at the scene. He was the only one in his car.

Rep. Walorski was elected to Congress back in 2012, and his death has already sent shockwaves through Capitol Hill.

Transport Secretary Pete Buttigieg says he is “shocked and saddened” to hear of the tragic death of Republic Walorski… remembering him as someone who was “always willing to work together, where there was common ground, always decent and straightforward, and he cared deeply about his work and ingredients.”

Rep. Walorski was 58 years old.
