DECATUR (WKZO-AM) — Van Buren County Sheriff’s deputies are investigating a fatal crash that killed a 21-year-old from Decatur.
It happened at around 3:30 a.m. Sunday.
Deputies say the driver was observed weaving dangerously at a high rate of speed on County Road 352.
The swerving resulted in a rollover that ejected the victim from the vehicle.
EMS crews attempted to revive him, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators are also trying to determine if the SUV involved in the fatal crash was also involved with a hit-and-run incident on Territorial Road that sent a pedestrian to the hospital with minor injuries. That incident occurred hours earlier.
