How they died

Pursuit

Chippewa County Central Dispatch received multiple 911 calls, beginning at about 7:59 p.m., reporting a truck that was driving recklessly in the Pickford area, heading north toward Sault Ste. Marie. Deputies located the truck northbound on M-129 and attempted to stop the other, but the truck continued speeding away. The truck's driver hit the back of a small car. The impact from the truck propelled the car into an electric pole. The driver of the car, later identified as a 20-year-old Sault Ste. Marie resident, was ejected due to the impact and killed. The truck continued northbound, until it took out a stop sign and electric pole guide wire before crashing into three parked cars and hitting a building. The driver of the truck was taken to War Memorial Hospital in Sault Ste. Marie with life-threatening injuries.
