CALEDONIA TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- One person is dead and another is in serious condition following a three-vehicle crash in Caledonia Township on Thursday morning.
It happened just before 6 o'clock on Whitneyville Avenue at Prairie View Lane. That is north of 66th Street.
"A northbound SUV driven by a 19-year-old female had sideswiped another vehicle that was traveling southbound, and then continued on and collided head-on with another sedan. That 19-year-old female from Dewitt, Michigan, was pronounced deceased at the scene," Kent County Sheriff's Sergeant Eric Brunner told WOOD Radio.
The driver of the vehicle that she collided head-on with was a 21-year-old man from Middleville, Michigan. He was taken to a hospital with serious injuries.
"So, our Traffic Safety Unit is investigating this crash involving these three vehicles. And we'll continue to put the pieces together after the fact, as they continue to collect evidence and data from the scene," Brunner said.
The scene had cleared sometime after 9 a.m.
