Crash Under Investigation

Investigators say alcohol likely played a role in a crash late Wednesday night in Worth Township. Deputies say a 21-year-old man from Burtchville ran a stop sign at Galbraith Line and St. Clair Roads around 10 p.m., when his Jeep was hit by a westbound Chevy Malibu driven by a 23-year-old Sandusky woman. The Jeep ended up in a ditch. The man, who wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, was taken to McLaren Port Huron Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The woman wasn’t hurt. The Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office is still investigating.
