Two Local Accidents Leave Two Drivers Dead

An Auburn Hills man drove off the exit ramp on M-59 at Squirrel Lake Road and into a heavily wooded area. He was driving a 2004 silver Chrysler Sebring.

Auburn Hills Lt. Jill McDonnel said that car took out a tree. The man driving was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver’s 24-year-old passenger from Southfield was taken to a nearby hospital is being treated for serious injuries.

No names are being released and the accident is still an ongoing investigation.

There are no witnesses and any information can be reported to 248-370-9444.

The second was a motorcycle accident in Independence Township. On Sunday, a 26-year-old man named Dustin Morris crashed his 2012 Yamaha YZFR1 into a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado.

Alcohol does not appear to be a factor of the crash. Morris was wearing a helmet and the driver of the truck is uninjured.
