Driver in fatal Haughville hit-and-run detained by ICE
Police say the driver had a .229 blood alcohol level and faces DUI and hit-and-run charges after fleeing the crash.
- On September 26, 2026, a 22-year-old driver struck and killed 33-year-old Tamara Renee Thomas with a gray Honda CRV near West 16th Street and North Tibbs Avenue in Indianapolis; officers arrested him hours later.
- Testing revealed the driver's blood alcohol concentration reached.229, nearly triple Indiana's legal limit of.08. He faces charges including driving while intoxicated and causing death.
- Born and raised a "Haughville kid," Tamara Thomas struggled with substance abuse despite being loved by her Stringtown neighbors. Her father, Howard "Tommy" Thomas, said she "had so much promise."
- Haughville, located in a zip code ranking among the highest for drug overdose deaths in Marion County, has long been the site of narcotics investigations. This environment presented significant challenges for residents like Thomas.
- Supporters have donated more than $6,000 to a fund to cover funeral expenses for Thomas. Seeking to give his daughter "dignity in death," Tommy Thomas plans to cremate her and spread her ashes in Hawaii.
