| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Numerous weather-related traffic accidents were reported across the mentioned counties during the morning of Wednesday, January 21st. Light snow which fell across the region during the pre-dawn hours and through the morning rush hour made for hazardous travel conditions. Although only one-half to an inch of snow accumulated, roads were slick and dangerous. A weather-related accident in Montcalm County at 10:50 AM EST claimed the life of a 50 year-old Mount Pleasant man on Michigan Highway 46 in Belvidere Township near Six Lakes. The victim lost control of his minivan on the snow-coated road and collided with 2 other vehicles, injuring 3 others who were treated at the accident scene. In Mecosta County, a semi-truck rear-ended another vehicle, then slid off southbound U.S. Highway 131 and rolled over. Two people were injured in that accident. Greater than 15 weather-related property damage accidents and several minor personal injury accidents occurred during the morning across the mentioned counties. |
