HENDRICKS Co. — Court documents released Monday by Hendricks County allege that the 18-year-old charged with killing Indiana State Police Trooper Aaron Smith on Wednesday intentionally swerved and struck him with a stolen vehicle.
Court documents state at first Jones and Curry complied with officers commands but after several minutes, Jones, the driver of the vehicle, rammed the police vehicle and fled the scene. "At this point in the dash cam video, as well as the INDOT video, it is clear there are no vehicles or obstructions on southbound Ronald Reagan Parkway which would stop the suspect vehicle from continuing southbound on Ronald Reagan Parkway in the far left lane," court documents state.
The juvenile gave a witness statement to police. In the statement, court documents say the juvenile told police that she believed Jones saw Trooper Smith before hitting him."when the officer went to throw the 'spikes' he sped up and 'turned and like, all I heard was smack all over the car," she stated.
