PORTER TOWNSHIP, Mich. — The Cass County Sheriff's Office is investigating a Friday night single vehicle crash in Porter Township that left two people injured. Officials say dispatch got the call for the crash around 7:45 P.M. Friday near Bellows Road south of Sweet Road.

Investigators say the vehicle was driven by a 16-year-old heading south, when the vehicle collided with a log in the roadway. This caused the driver to lose control, hit a tree, and overturn the vehicle.

A 19-year-old passenger was ejected from the vehicle because he wasn't wearing a seatbelt, authorities say. The passenger was taken to a local hospital, and the driver was treated for injuries at the scene.
