According to
police, at 8:30 p.m. Feliciano was westbound “at a high rate of speed” in
the 2100 block of Ransom Road when his 2006 Ford Crown Victoria crossed the
center line, left the roadway to the south, then struck a utility pole and
two trees before coming to rest.
Feliciano was
pronounced dead at the scene, police said, but his infant child, secured in
a child safety seat in the rear of car, escaped the accident with non-life
threatening injuries.
The infant was
transported to Porter Regional Hospital, then transferred to Memorial
Hospital in South Bend, police said.
The PCSP was
assisted at the scene by Valparaiso Police and Fire and the Coroner’s
Office.
