Head-On Crash Kills Woman in Barry County | Lansing News

A deadly head-on crash on M-37 in Barry County left one woman dead and another seriously injured after a Lansing driver, allegedly under the influence of drugs, crossed into oncoming traffic. The 59-year-old Jeep driver died at the scene while her passenger survived with minor injuries. The intoxicated 23-year-old Ford Escape driver suffered critical injuries and was hospitalized. Both Jeep occupants were buckled up — a sobering contrast to the unbuckled driver. Authorities are investigating drug impairment as a key factor, and M-37 was shut down for six hours. This tragic collision underscores the lethal consequences of impaired driving and the importance of seat belt use.
