Redford Township, MI : Woman killed in car crash on Monday October 6th 2014.
A man who was wanted in connection with a home invasion Monday morning in Livonia ended up crashing into a woman's car at 6 Mile and Beech Daly roads in Redford Township.
That 26-year-old Royal Oak woman, Fransesca Weatherhead, was killed in the crash after her minivan was broadsided and flipped.
Livonia police said one of their officers was trying to catch up to the Ford SUV, with the driver suspected of being involved in the home invasion around 10:10 a.m. in the 15000 block of Shadyside.
What do you do? What are you supposed to do?" said Kristina Vitale, Weatherhead's sister. "I love my sister so much. I hate the person who did this to her. It's very unfair."
Kristina and Nina Vitale said they are mourning their sister.
"She was an amazing person," Nina said. "(It's) sad her life got taken away so soon. (She was) just married for a year, just bought a house and was trying to have a baby. She was so ambitious, kind, beautiful -- so beautiful inside and out."
Weatherhead was a sales manager for a local tobacco distribution center. Her job caused her to travel quite a bit. She was working Monday morning, driving in Redford Township, when she was broadsided by the man who was allegedly fleeing police.
