Officials were called to a private body of water near US 421 and Interstate 94 Sunday afternoon on a report of two people falling in the water while fishing.
A Lake Station man died after suffering a medical event behind the wheel, driving on Interstate 94 Monday morning.
Indiana State Police troopers responded at 11 a.m. to the 37.3 mile-marker of westbound I-94, where it was reported a black 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck had slammed into a guardrail, rolling the truck on its side.
A police investigation revealed that Adam L. Braun, 43, of Lake Station, was driving in the right lane of the interstate when he suffered the medical event.
A passenger in the truck attempted to take control after the Dodge shifted into another lane, authorities said. However, the passenger was unable to regain control before the truck struck an outer guard rail.
