Southfield, MI (August 13, 2023) - After a horrific car accident on Saturday night in Sterling Heights, a mother was reportedly killed, and the father and their 2-year-old child were taken to the hospital.
According to reports, the Sterling Heights Police Department attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a Chevrolet Equinox at around 9:30 p.m. and proceeded to pursue the vehicle when the driver allegedly made a northbound break on Van Dyke Avenue at 15 Mile Road.
After reportedly running a red light on 16 Mile Road, the Equinox allegedly collided with a GMC Terrain. Inside the Terrain were a 31-year-old Sterling Heights man, a 2-year-old toddler, and a 31-year-old Sterling Heights woman. The three victims were hurt badly enough to need an ambulance transport to the hospital. A short time later, the woman passed away at the hospital; the man and the child were still in critical condition.
The crash left the Detroit teen driver, 16, unharmed, but he was detained anyway.
The reason for the accident is yet unknown. If you know anything, please get in touch with the Sterling Heights Investigations Bureau.
Our hearts go out to the family and friends of the deceased woman. The wounded and their loved ones remain in our thoughts at this time.
