Investigators say the truck lost control on icy pavement and flipped into a ditch, ejecting the driver. CPR was performed, but the 37-year-old man later died at McLaren Port Huron.

Fort Gratiot Welcomes Burlington

Fort Gratiot Township is getting a new Burlington Stores this spring. The off-price retailer is renovating the long-empty former Dick’s Sporting Goods on 24th Avenue. Township officials say permits are approved and work is underway, calling the redevelopment a boost for the area’s commercial corridor. The 45,000-square-foot building has a long retail history, including Dick’s Sporting Goods and Builder’s Square. Burlington’s arrival is expected to create jobs and draw shoppers, with officials hopeful more vacant spaces nearby will follow suit.
