Four persons are expected to recover from injuries suffered in a crash just east of Hudsonville on Tuesday afternoon.
According to Ottawa County Sheriff’s Sergeant Jeff Steigenga, 19-year-old Makayla Potter of Jenison was transporting four other passengers in her westbound vehicle along I-196 around 1:30 PM when the left front tire blew around the 22nd Avenue overpass. “(Her vehicle) went left off of the roadway into the center median, continued down a hill, and eventually had a collision with a cement culvert before coming to a stop,” Steigenga explained.
Potter and three others were transported to Metro Health with non-life threatening injuries; another passenger was unhurt. The crash remains under investigation.
