2/20/13 - Two Howell women had to be extricated from their vehicles following an accident early this afternoon. The Livingston County Sheriffâs Department responded to the accident at around 12:30pm on Grand River, near the Speedway gas station. Livingston County Sheriff Bob Bezotte says the accident involved a 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee driven by 70-year-old Carolyn Beauchamp of Howell and investigation revealed that she pulled out in front of a 2005 Chevy Silverado pick-up driven by 20-year-old Samantha Glowaski, also a Howell resident. Bezotte tells WHMI both women were wearing their seat belts and are expected to be okay, despite having to be extricated from their vehicles by Brighton firefighters. Both women were transported by ground ambulance to the University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor with non-life threatening injuries. Bezotte says alcohol was not a factor in the crash but Beauchamp was ticketed for failing to yield right of way. (JM)
