West Branch Township, MI : Teen killed in 2-vehicle crash in northern Michigan on Friday, February 12, 2016

A teenager is dead after a two-vehicle crash just east of West Branch.

At 9:45 p.m. Friday, Feb. 12, Michigan State Police troopers from the West Branch Post responded to the crash on M-55 near Peach Lake Road. They determined a 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier driven by 18-year-old Cambra J. Vogel had been heading east on M-55, said Special 1st Lt. David Kaiser. The Cavalier slid across the center line, Kaiser said. Icy road conditions contributed to the crash, police said.

A 2002 Buick LeSabre was heading west on M-55 and struck the Cavalier as it crossed its path, Kaiser said.

Medical personnel pronounced Vogel dead at the scene, Kaiser said. Vogel was traveling with two passengers. A 14-year-old female riding in the front passenger seat was transported to a hospital. A 17-year-old male was ejected from the car, Kaiser said.

The male was transported to a West Branch hospital, then airlifted to Saginaw for treatment of life-threatening injuries, Kaiser said.

Kaiser did not know the relationship between the Vogel and her two passengers but said they had different surnames. He also did not know where they are from.

The 41-year-old male driver of the LeSabre and his two passengers were treated for injuries and released, the lieutenant said.

Troopers continue to investigate the crash.
