On January 4, 2011, at approximately 12:37 a.m., Mundy Township Police Officers, Genesee County Paramedics and Mundy Township Firefighters responded to a crash on southbound US-23 north of Grand Blanc Road. At the scene they found one vehicle that had left the road and rolled over. There were three occupants. The driver, a 27 year old man from Linden was fatally injured. It appears that he was not wearing a seat belt.
The two passengers, a 28 year old woman and a 40 year old woman received injuries that are not believed to be life threatening. One of the women, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected from the vehicle. Both women are Fenton residents.
The initial investigation indicates that the vehicle was traveling southbound on US-23, collided with the median guardrail, travelled across the southbound lanes, ran off the right shoulder, struck a tree and then rolling over. The roads were snow covered at the time. It is not known if the road conditions or alcohol were a factor in the crash. The fatal crash reconstruction unit is assisting with the investigation.
Anyone who may have witnessed the accident or has information that might be helpful in this investigation is asked to contact the Mundy Township Police Department at (810) 655-4646.
