Flint Twp, MI : Two-vehicle crash involving troopers, unborn baby passed away on Tuesday, 15th September, 2020
State police are investigating a crash that involved a trooper's patrol cruiser and another vehicle, and ended with an unborn baby passing away.
It happened on Linden Road near Lennon Road in Flint Township.
According to the investigation, two troopers were southbound on Linden Road in one patrol vehicle when they saw a vehicle north on Linden Road commit a traffic violation.
The troopers turned around to stop the vehicle when they went into the path of another southbound vehicle, MSP reports.
This resulted in the southbound vehicle, a 2018 Chevy Malibu, striking the patrol vehicle in the driver’s side door.
Three people were inside the Malibu, including the 28-year-old female driver, a 38-year-old woman from Flint who was pregnant with twins, and an 18-year-old female from Mt. Morris.
The driver from Mt. Morris was taken to a hospital where she was treated and released. The pregnant woman from Flint was taken to the hospital for treatment as well. The mother's condition is unclear at this point, but MSP said one twin passed away. The condition of the other twin is unclear.
"The result of this is tragic," MSP Sgt. Joseph Rowley said.
