A man was killed and a child was seriously injured after a car failed to yield at an intersection in Madison County during a collision with a motorcycle on Monday night.

ALEXANDRIA, Ind (WISH-TV) — A man died and a child was in the hospital with “significant” injuries after a passenger vehicle collided with a motorcycle Monday in Madison County.

The Madison County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday that its crash investigation team is investigating the crash. A news release said the crash happened at the intersection of County Road 100 East and County Road 1300 North just before 10 Monday night.

The release said the investigation indicated a 2016 Dodge Journey, driven by Ruth A. Paugh, 46, of Anderson, was traveling eastbound when it entered the intersection and failed to yield the right-of-way to a northbound Kawasaki Vulcan motorcycle, driven by Matthew Scott Doud, 33, of Summitville.

Doud died at the scene, the Madison County Coroner’s Office said.

A juvenile passenger on the motorcycle was transported to Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis for treatment.

The news release did not provide any other information about the injured juvenile.

Paugh, the driver of the Dodge Journey was not injured, remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators, according to the release.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
