Passenger Killed and Driver Injured In Michigan Pickup Truck Accident
Erik Parks was killed and Andrew Roberts was injured in a Jerusalem Township pickup truck accident that occurred on State Rt. 2. According to police, the truck was driving westbound along Route 2, east of milepost 33, on what is locally known as Bono Curve, when the truck went off the road and struck a guardrail. Parks was the front seat passenger in the vehicle. Roberts, the driver of the pickup truck, suffers injuries and was taken to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center.
I am very sorry to hear about the accident. My condolences go out to the family of the deceased victim and I hope the injured victim has a fast recovery without any permanent damages.
