Clam Lake Township, MI : Worker killed, another injured after a truck driver charged after he crashed into a road crew in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula on Monday, February 8, 2016

A truck driver has been charged after authorities say he crashed into a road crew in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula, killing a worker and injuring another.

The crash happened Monday in Wexford County's Clam Lake Township as the crew was finishing work on a sign along an exit ramp from U.S. highway 131.

The Cadillac News and MLive.com report 42-year-old Scott McCant of Grand Rapids was charged Tuesday in Wexford County District Court with reckless driving causing death.

The Associated Press left a message Wednesday seeking comment from his court-appointed lawyer.

The truck driver was exiting the highway and the crew had posted signs warning drivers of the work. Authorities say 45-year-old Sean Jordan of Holly died at the scene and a worker from Troy was hospitalized in good condition.
