SPARTA TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A man is facing charges two months after a hit-and-run crash in Sparta Township.
The crash happened the night of April 15 north of 13 Mile Road on Division Avenue. The Kent County Sheriff’s Office (KCSO) says a bicyclist was seriously hurt. The victim reportedly wore a reflective vest and an activated headlamp.
We’re told a suspect turned himself in a short while later.
Following a series of interviews and search warrants, deputies say it was determined alcohol played a role in the crash.
Charges for operating while intoxicated and failure to stop after a crash have since been authorized against 53-year-old Paul Eastway from Grand Haven, according to KCSO.
