Fatal Detroit crash leads to suspects being pursued and arrested by bystanders
A tragic car accident claimed the life of a young woman from Macomb County on Detroit's east side last Thursday evening. Two men are currently in police custody after fleeing the scene on foot. The crash occurred on 8 Mile near Schoenherr when a speeding Jeep Cherokee collided with a silver Lexus, resulting in the woman's death. Witnesses, including Daniel Camp, described the chaotic scene, with Camp recalling the sound of the impact resembling that of a semi-truck. Despite bystanders' efforts to help the victim trapped in the Lexus, she unfortunately succumbed to her injuries. The men in the Jeep Cherokee attempted to escape but were apprehended by police, with bystanders actively assisting in their capture. The Detroit Police Department's Fatal Squad is investigating the incident, with eventual findings to be reviewed by the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office for potential charges.
