Tragedy struck Robinson Township southeast of Grand Haven when a crash between two pickup trucks left four individuals injured. The Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office reported the incident occurred last night at around 9 p.m. at the intersection of Osborn Street and 104th Avenue. MLive detailed the unfolding of events as a 2017 Ford F-250 collided with a northbound F-350 after the former failed to adhere to a stop sign.
Local authorities were quick to respond to the crash scene. All four occupants sustained injuries, with three facing serious but non-life-threatening conditions and one suffering minor injuries. The 23-year-old driver from Allendale had the misfortune of being airlifted to the hospital, while passengers from the same truck, a 23-year-old from Ravenna and a 21-year-old from Grand Haven, received medical attention for both serious and minor injuries, respectively. The mate of the F-250, a 70-year-old man from Grand Haven, was sent to the hospital with serious injuries as well, as reported by WOODTV.
Following the crash, Ottawa County Sheriff’s Sergeant Shane Ryke confirmed that emergency services had to extricate the F-250’s occupants who were trapped in the vehicle post-collision. It was noted by authorities that seat belts were used by all individuals involved, which presumably played a role in preventing fatalities. The intersection saw temporary closures as the route was cleared and eventually reopened, as mentioned by WOODTV…
