OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 07/29/2026, Lynn Town Marshal Bradley Fisher was struck and killed by a driver during a police pursuit near the intersection of U.S. Highway 27 and U.S. Highway 36 in Lynn. At approximately 8:30 a.m., a Randolph County Sheriff’s Department deputy saw a van near County Road 400 West and County Road 50 South that matched the description of a reported stolen vehicle. The deputy recognized the driver as 34-year-old Maci Marquelle Atkinson of Winchester, who had active felony warrants.
The deputy activated emergency lights and attempted a high-risk traffic stop. Atkinson continued driving eastbound on U.S. Highway 36 while Randolph County deputies pursued her toward Lynn. Police radioed ahead for assistance. Fisher drove ahead of the pursuit and positioned his Lynn Police Department truck near the intersection of U.S. 27 and U.S. 36 so he could deploy tire-deflation devices.
Fisher was standing behind his department truck when the van reached his position. Indiana State Police said the van veered toward Fisher as he attempted to move into a ditch and struck him head-on. The van continued eastbound, went out of control and collided with a dump truck, ending the pursuit.
Emergency personnel transported Fisher to Ascension St. Vincent Randolph Hospital in Winchester, where he died from his injuries. Atkinson was also transported to a hospital for treatment. After she was released, police booked her into the Randolph County Jail on her outstanding felony warrant. Indiana State Police said additional charges related to Fisher’s death were expected as the investigation continued.
Fisher had served with the Lynn Police Department for 27 years. In addition to serving as town marshal, he was a Lynn fire captain, the town street superintendent, a school resource officer, baseball umpire, coach, athletic booster, game announcer and volunteer with local students. He was married and had two children, including a son who had recently been sworn in as a Randolph County sheriff’s deputy.
The Randolph County Sheriff’s Department requested that Indiana State Police investigate the fatal pursuit and collision. Published scene photographs show Fisher’s department truck positioned along the roadside and the damaged van following its collision with the dump truck.
