Detroit, MI (December 20, 2021) - At about 4:00 p.m. on Monday, December 20, a major auto accident caused injuries and shut down a portion of an interstate in Detroit. Officials promptly responded to the eastbound lanes of Interstate 94 near I-75 to assist at the scene.

According to preliminary reports concerning the crash, it took place when an SUV was driving recklessly on the interstate before it was involved in a collision with a semi-truck. When police arrived on-site, they found the Dodge SUV on fire and the semi blocking the left and center lanes of I-94.

Troopers were later informed that the SUV had been stolen from the Detroit airport. Police from the airport added that four other vehicles had been stolen in a recent incident that is suspected to be related.

Both the driver and passenger of the SUV sustained injuries and were transported to an area medical center for treatment. The passenger sustained a compound fracture to his leg and burns, while the driver had a head laceration.

Authorities in Detroit continue to investigate. Our thoughts are with those involved.

Michigan Auto Collisions

One of the most difficult things a person can go through is sustaining serious injuries in an auto accident. Depending on the circumstances of the wreck, victims may be forced to undergo extensive medical care that can take up a lot of time, energy, and resources. The severity of the resulting injuries may force injured victims into emergency surgery and lengthy recovery stays in the hospital. Repeated doctor visits, physical therapy, and other medical appointments may be in their future plans as well.

All of this can cost a fortune, and really take a toll on a person’s ability to live their life how they want to. Suffering from a debilitating injury can also mean time off of work for days, weeks, or even months–maybe even indefinitely. A person’s life can be turned upside down after being injured in a serious accident.
