An Indiana National Guard soldier was killed and three others were injured Friday in a multi-vehicle crash on I-65 in Boone County, Ind.

“The loss of any of our Guardsmen is tragic, and we offer our deepest and heartfelt condolences to the soldier’s family, loved ones and friends,” the Indiana National Guard said in a statement released Saturday.

The soldiers were assigned to Company D, 2nd Battalion, 151st Infantry Regiment.

According to a Facebook post from the Boone County Sheriff’s Office, the crash involved one Humvee, an SUV and a car hauler truck.

One soldier was pronounced dead at the scene, the sheriff’s office said. The three injured soldiers were transported to a hospital. The drivers of the other vehicles were treated at the scene.

“We take our responsibility to soldiers and their families seriously,” Maj. Gen. Larry Muennich, Indiana National Guard adjutant general, said in the statement. “As an organization, we become a family to each other, and the death of a fellow service member resonates throughout the force. We offer our sincerest condolences to the soldier’s family, friends and fellow soldiers. The loss is felt deeply, and we will continue to provide support to his family.”

Indiana Gov. Mike Braun also expressed his sympathies.

“The Indiana National Guard is always there for Hoosiers and our communities, and we must always be there for them in their time of need and tragedy. I extend my deepest condolences to the soldier’s family and friends,” Braun said.

The soldiers were traveling in a convoy from the Frankfort Armory to Camp Atterbury for training on a drill weekend when the accident occurred.

The accident is under investigation. Names of the soldiers have been withheld until next of kin have been notified.
