DOWAGIAC, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — A Cass County man was hospitalized after losing control of his vehicle and colliding with a home on the afternoon of Wednesday, January 8th.
Dowagiac police and fire departments were dispatched at 4:40 P.M. after the 47-year-old driver crashed into a home on the 500 block of West High Street in Dowagiac.
The man was sent to Ascension Borgess-Lee Hospital to be treated for minor injuries. Officers say that no one else was injured in the crash, but the house that was hit suffered substantial damage.
