Two fatal buggy crashes involving the tragic and completely avoidable deaths of two Amish community members in Michigan have prompted action by law enforcement agencies.
MLive reports that at around 6:30 on the morning of March 6, 2025, 27-year-old Henry Troyer, a member of the local Gladwin County Amish community, was killed when an SUV tried to pass a school bus. Not even three weeks later, The Detroit News reported that on March 26, 8-year-old Alma Yoder was killed in Van Buren County by a woman who was allegedly high on prescription pills. Others were also injured in each incident.
