Jeffersontown Man Suicidal In Days Before Collision In Clark County

According to Jeffersontown Police, 40-year-old Troy Anderson of Louisville was involved in a head-on collision with 57-year-old Steven Haworth of Charlestown, Indiana. The car accident took place on Indiana 160 on Friday afternoon, March 5, outside of Henryville. Both men died of blunt force trauma according to Jefferson County Chief Deputy Coroner Jo-Ann Farmer. No one else was involved in the Indiana car accident and police are unsure of which car crossed the centerline and caused the head-on accident.

In the days before the crash, Anderson, a local chiropractor, had had several mental health issues and several run-ins with local police. He said that he wanted to kill himself after a break-up. Anderson’s mother had called police three days before the fatal car accident because her son was harming himself with a sharp instrument. When police arrived, Anderson threw the instrument and attacked an officer. He was tased twice by officers.

Following his arrest, Anderson was charged with assault, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. He was taken to University hospital and was considered a danger to himself and others. An emergency mental inquest warrant was immediately issued. No one is sure when or why he was discharged from the hospital.

Because there were no witnesses to the IN car crash and no survivors, it may be difficult for Indiana police to ever understand what happened or caused the Clark County car accident.
