4/4/14 - Two men were injured in a single-vehicle crash in Green Oak Township just after midnight on Friday. At 12:01am, Green Oak Township Police were called out to M-36 west of Lemen Road for a report of an unknown injury crash. They found a red 1997 Chevy pickup that they believe had been traveling westbound before sliding into the eastbound lanes, hitting a ditch, and rolling over. It came to a rest upright on the eastbound shoulder. The driver, a 20-year-old Whitmore Lake man, was ejected during the rollover, while the passenger, a 20-year-old Gregory man, remained inside the cab. Police believe neither one was wearing a seatbelt, and they were taken by Livingston County EMS to the University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor. Their injuries were described as serious, but not life-threatening. The investigation is ongoing, but excessive speed and alcohol are believed to be factors in the crash. (TD)
