Warren,MI : Two Manton men involved in road rage crash on Wednesday, 14th May, 2020
The commute home after a long day at work can have a person on their last nerve and it appears two Manton men let their emotions get the best of them Wednesday.
Cadillac Michigan State Police Trooper Ryan Krebiehl said at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday two vehicles were headed north on Mitchell Street at the Boon Road intersection when a road rage type incident occurred. Once the light turned green, the two vehicles, a Dodge Dart and a Chevrolet Trailblazer, proceeded through the intersection.
The Dart was in the inside lane and accelerated to get past the Trailblazer as the lanes on Mitchell Street condense into one lane further north on the road, according to Krebiehl said. The driver of the Trailblazer, a 54-year-old Manton man, also accelerated not letting the driver of the Dart, a 23-year-old Manton man pass him.
Krebiehl said the two men preceded to bump into each other as the older Manton man attempted to stand his ground and the younger Manton man attempted to merge in front of the Trailblazer. Eventually, Krebiehl said the Trailblazer was forced into the southbound lane, lost control and spun across the road back into the northbound lane and overturned in a ditch.
