Springfield Township ,MI : MSP trooper killed in I-75 crash near Dixie Highway On Friday , August 28th 2015

Funeral arrangements have been made for a Michigan State Police trooper who was hit and dragged by a car on Interstate 75 near Dixie Highway.

The department said 38-year-old trooper Chad Wolf was on his motorcycle when he was hit on north Dixie Highway by a car towing a trailer that was changing lanes to get on the ramp to northbound I-75.

Wolf was dragged for several miles under the trailer. The driver didn't stop until the next rest area, which was 4.3 miles down the highway.

"It appears that he was cut off by another vehicle. That's the individual that we're discussing with right now," said Lt. Michael Shaw. "The thing that's different about this particular crash is the size of the actual scene. We have to start from the very beginning to go through and find bits and pieces of evidence as we work our way through."

The northbound lanes of I-75 were closed for hours on Friday but have since reopened to traffic.
