Fox 59 | Ann Keil

Jason Uhrin, 21, died hours after he was hit by an SUV while crossing the street with his fiance who was also hit. Uhrin's father is now donating his son's organs as promised, and he says he is proud.


Indianapolis-A young couple is dead after being hit by an SUV Tuesday night. Days later, one of the families would make the tough decision to take their son off life support, but doing so, they said it would change eight or nine lives forever.

"The pain and the emotion, it comes and goes in waves," said Don Uhrin, 21-year-old Jason Uhrin's father.
