Detroit, MI (September 15, 2023) - On Friday evening, September 15, multiple vehicles collided in the right lanes of the highway on I-96 in Detroit, leading to victim injuries, as reported by Michigan State Police troopers and local officers.

According to a report from troopers with the MSP, at least one of the drivers involved in the collision, which occurred on the eastbound side of I-96 at the Schaefer Highway, was assessed for injuries before being transported to an area hospital. Though officers wrapped up their on-scene investigation, which started shortly after the wreck was reported at 8:10 p.m., they have not provided specific details about the victims involved.

The roadway was closed for cleanup just before the Mound Road exit but has since reopened. The inquiry into the cause of the accident is ongoing and active in the meantime.

Our thoughts go out to the injured victims and their families at this time.
