8/19/14 - Authorities responded to a crash on Latson Road south of Grand River this afternoon. Sheriff Bob Bezotte reports the call came in at about 3:30 near the entrance to the Walmart complex. He says a 56-year-old Brighton man in a Ford pickup truck tried to turn northbound onto Latson Road, but could not make the turn in time and was struck by a 65-year-old Howell woman traveling southbound in a sedan. The pickup was struck in the driverâs side door. The driver of the sedan was treated and released at the scene, while the driver of the pickup did not need treatment. A 50-year-old Brighton woman was a passenger in the pickup, and she was transported to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital by Livingston County EMS with non-life-threatening injuries.
