Man, 24, dies following crash on US-131

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The man who was injured in a crash on  US-131 north of Grand Rapids late Friday night has died, his family  members said.

They identified him to 24 Hour News 8 on Sunday as 24-year-old William Wade.

The crash happened just before midnight Friday on southbound US-131 near West River Drive in Plainfield Township.

Family members say Wade was behind the wheel of his friend’s car,  which had been stopped on the right shoulder due to some sort of  breakdown. When Wade tried to merge back into highway traffic, the car  could not accelerate and was struck from behind by another vehicle.
