Ann Arbor, MI (January 19, 2024) - On January 18, the police, firefighters, and emergency medical services personnel responded to provide assistance on-site at a motor vehicle accident that ended in injuries.

At around 1015 a.m., the Michigan Department of Transportation reported that a motor vehicle accident occurred on the northbound side of Interstate 75. The incident caused severe disruptions in the area just after Dixie Highway as emergency officials worked to remove the involved vehicles from the two lanes on the left of the road.

At this time, investigations into the crash are ongoing.

We hope those harmed in this auto wreck recover quickly.
