A Sterling Heights man died as the result of injuries suffered in a one vehicle crash Wednesday afternoon on I-94 in Casco Township. According to St. Clair County Sheriff Tim Donnellon, 67 year old Patrick Mrachina was alone, travelling westbound on I-94 near Church Road shortly after 3:00. Mrachina lost control of his 2008 Ford pickup on what were described as icy road conditions at the time. The vehicle went off the road to the right and went on its side, with Mrachina being ejected from the vehicle and suffering fatal injuries. He was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. Mrachina was transported by Richmond-Lenox EMS to the morgue at McLaren Port Huron Hospital. Richmond Fire and Rescue also assisted at the scene of the crash, which remains under investigation.
