Police chase ends in crash on Keystone Parkway; man faces criminal charges

Man arrested after car chase, crash in Carmel

CARMEL, Ind. (WISH) — A 31-year-old man faces criminal charges after a police chase that ended with a crash that closed Keystone Parkway late Saturday night and into the early hours Sunday, police say.

Raheem David Murray remained in the Hamilton County jail in Noblesville on Sunday afternoon.

Carmel police said in a Sunday afternoon social media post that officers had been chasing Murray until he drove onto the southbound lanes of northbound Keystone Parkway. A crash with another vehicle soon followed, and Murray fled on foot before officers caught him.

The driver of the other vehicle, who Carmel police did not publicly identify, was treated at a nearby hospital and later released.

A Carmel police deputy chief told News 8 via email that the crash started just before 10:30 p.m. Saturday on Keystone Parkway near 126th Street.

Photos taken around midnight Saturday from News 8’s Adele Reich showed a white SUV on its side north of 116th Street. Motorists were being directed off the parkway, she said.
