SPRINGFIELD, Mich. — Two people are injured and one is dead after a crash in Calhoun County that deputies say was caused by a man not stopping at a stop sign.
It happened about 10 a.m. Monday at the intersection of N. 30th Street and 6th Avenue in Springfield, according to a news release.
Deputies’ investigation showed a 42-year-old Battle Creek man was northbound on 6th Avenue and was hit by an eastbound vehicle, driven by a 70-year-old Battle Creek man, that didn’t stop at a stop sign.
The two occupants of the northbound vehicle, which overturned, had minor injuries, while the man in the eastbound vehicle sustained life-threatening injuries. He was taken to the hospital where he later passed away.
