DORR TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Mar. 21, 2023) – A 44-year-old Wayland area man was seriously injured in what Allegan County Sheriff’s Deputies believe was a two-vehicle crash near Dorr overnight on Tuesday.
According to Sheriff’s Lieutenant John Damveld, the unnamed motorist was found trapped in his vehicle alongside southbound US-131 near 138th Avenue around 3:45 AM. While he was extricated and taken to an undisclosed “local” hospital for treatment, investigators blocked off the right lane for several hours in an attempt to recreate the circumstances that led to the crash.
It is believed that the motorist may have rear-ended a semi or another type of large vehicle, causing his vehicle to lose control and veer off of the roadway. No other vehicles that may have been involved were in the area, leading deputies to theorize that the other driver involved may not have been aware of being struck by the now-injured motorist.
Anyone with any information in this matter is asked to contact Allegan County Central Dispatch (269-673-3899)
