Holland Man Faces Charges In Fatal Acccident

24 Hour News 8 reports, the Ottawa County Prosecutor’s Office is expected to issue charges against a Holland man who caused the crash that killed a grandmother and seriously injured her grandson.

Cameron Burrows, 41, had drugs in his system at the time of the Jan. 3 crash, the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department has confirmed.

Witnesses said Burrows was traveling east on business loop I-196 when his Chevrolet Silverado ran a red light, hitting the driver’s side door of an Audi A6, which was northbound on 104th Avenue.

The driver of the Audi, 65-year-old Sandra Kay DeBoer of Zeeland, died at the scene. Her front seat passenger, 10-year-old Gavin DeBoer of Zeeland, was taken to Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital with critical injuries. His current condition is unclear.

Burrows was also seriously injured in the crash.

Investigators said Wednesday Burrows’ toxicology test came back positive for an elevated level of drugs.

Burrows has an extensive history of driving offenses, according to state records obtained by 24 Hour News 8.
