HELMER, Ind. (WANE) - A Garrett man failed to negotiate a curve on State Road 327 late Monday night, crashing his BMW into a tree, according to police.
According to DeKalb County Sheriff Officers, just before midnight, Ricky Cline, 31, was traveling north on S.R. 327 near County Road 2 when he left the road at the start of a large 'S' curve.
The car continued off the road and down a small embankment before slamming into a tree.
