The surviving driver in Tuesday night's fatal crash on U.S. 49 in Saucier has been identified as a 34-year-old Indiana man.

Michael D. Agnew, of Vincennes, Ind., pulled in front of a southbound motorcycle at the West Wortham Road intersection around 7:25 p.m., said Master Sgt. Joe Gazzo of the state Highway Patrol.

Michael Haverkamp, 43, of Alto, Mich., died in the collision.

Agnew, driving a 1989 Buick Regal, was attempting to cross the southbound lanes and turn north when the 2004 Harley Davison driven by Haverkamp struck the left rear of his car, Gazzo said.

The crash remains under investigation.
