TENNYSON – Police say two men suspected of trying to steal anhydrous ammonia from a southern Indiana farm died in a car crash as they fled.
The Warrick County Sheriff’s Department said a farmer spotted the men early Monday and followed them as they drove away. The farmer called police after finding that the car had crashed into a guardrail on a rural road near the community of Tennyson.
The coroner’s office said those killed in the crash were 31-year-old Ronald Jason Baker and 19-year-old Robert E. Waters Jr., both of Yankeetown.
Anhydrous ammonia is a fertilizer that is often stolen for use in the production of methamphetamine.
