Narrative
WASHTENAW COUNTY, MI – A 49-year-old man from Dearborn Heights died late Tuesday afternoon after his car was struck by a tire that had detached from another vehicle on Interstate 94 in Ann Arbor Township.
Michigan State Police said the fatal incident unfolded near State Street at around 4:00 p.m.
An investigation found that the front driver’s side tire had come loose off of a westbound car driven by a 38-year-old man from Jackson. The detached tire then traveled over the median wall and collided with the driver’s side windshield of an eastbound vehicle.
Officials said the impact caused the roof of the victim car to cave in and strike the head of its driver, who succumbed to his injuries at the scene.
The MSP continues to investigate.
