Kalamazoo, MI:
On January 31st, 2021 at approximately 00:15 AM, Kalamazoo Public Safety responded to the area of Kilgore Rd and the Kilgore Service Rd for the report of a traffic accident. Officers located a head-on collision near the intersection that had obvious significant damage to both vehicles.
One of the vehicle’s passengers was found in full cardiac arrest upon arrival and officers immediately started life saving measures. The occupant was transported to a local hospital where they were unfortunately pronounced deceased.
The drivers of both vehicles were also transported to local hospitals for non-threatening injuries. Alcohol is believed to be a factor; however, the investigation is on-going. Kilgore Rd is was shut down for thru traffic for several hours but is currently back open for normal traffic use.
The name of the deceased is also currently being withheld pending notification to the next of kin.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Kalamazoo Public Safety at (269)337-8139 or Silent Observer at (269)343-2100 or www.kalamazoosilentobserver.com.
