Three people died in Park crash

A 52-year-old Kalamazoo man was one of three people killed in a car-versus-semi accident last week on U.S. 131 in Park Township.

Names of the victims have not yet been released but sheriff’s deputies said the driver of the car was heading east on Johnson Road around 8 p.m. Friday. The driver neglected to stop at the U.S. 131 intersection and drove his vehicle into the path of a southbound semi tractor-trailer.

Two occupants in the car died, in addition to its driver. The driver was wearing a seatbelt, the two passengers were not, investigators said.

The semi driver, a 46-year-old Grand Rapids man, suffered minor injuries.
