Investigators say a 45-year-old Holland man was driving the van, which rolled over because of the crash.
He and a 30-year-old woman passenger received minor injuries.
A four-year-old boy, who the sheriff’s office says was not buckled in properly, was thrown from the van and was last listed as in critical condition.
A three-year-old girl was also in the van when it rolled, and the sheriff’s office says she was not hurt.
The driver of the other car, a 42-year-old Alto man, was not hurt.
The sheriff’s office asks any witnesses who either saw the cars before or during the crash to call Ottawa County Central Dispatch at 1-800-249-0911 or Silent Observer at 877-88-SILENT.
Part of I-196 was closed in both directions for several hours; however, the sheriff's office says it was reopened around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.
