The driver in a one-vehicle crash that killed his girlfriend is reportedly behind bars.

Authorities in Marion County arrested 39-year-old Kevin Bell on charges related to the Sept. 17 crash which killed 37-year-old Nikki Reed, of Seymour. Bell reportedly told investigators that he lost control of the SUV he was driving and went down an embankment and hitting a tree, head-on. The crash happened on a Saturday, but Bell wasn’t found until the following Tuesday when he was seen walking along the road. By then, both he and Reed were reported as missing.

About one week later, Bell was charged with: Leaving the Scene of an Accident Resulting in Death, Failure to Report a Dead Body, Driving with a Suspended License and False Informing.

Bell remains in the Marion County Jail. Staff at the Jennings County Jail did not know when he would be extradited.
