ST. CLAIR COUNTY, MI : 14-year-old from Southfield seriously injured in St. Clair County crash on Thursday, 28th December 2023

A 14-year-old from Southfield was seriously injured in a three-vehicle crash Thursday in Fort Gratiot.

The St. Clair County Sheriff's Office said a 2021 Dodge Durango was at a light attempting to turn left into a shopping complex just south of McDonald’s in the 4100 block of 24th Avenue around 4:35 p.m. While turning, a 2007 Dodge Ram with a trailer hauling a skid-steer loader traveling south hit the Durango near the rear passenger door.

After being hit, the Durango hit a 2017 Mitsubishi that was stopped and waiting to exit the shopping complex.

A 47-year-old Warren man was driving the Durango. He had a 17-year-old Warren boy in the passenger seat and a 14-year-old from Southfield and a 15-year-old from Warren in the backseat. The Southfield teen suffered serious injuries and was taken to an out-of-county hospital.

A 59-year-old Casco Township resident who was driving the Ram was not wearing a seatbelt and suffered a possible head injury. A 12-year-old from Kimball Township was also a passenger in the truck.

The driver and passenger in the Mitsubishi were not hurt.
