Police investigate death of young boy

Michigan State Police are investigating the death of a 2-year-old boy hit by a trailer last week in Cass County’s Porter Township.

Troopers were called at 3:30 p.m. Friday to Carter Lake Street, near Robbins Lake Road, after receiving reports that a child had been hit by a trailer. He was identified as Jackson Crager.

Investigators said life-saving measures were administered but the victim died at the scene.

According to authorities, a 57-year-old family member was going to move a utility trailer with a pickup across the property. Troopers said it appeared the boy wandered between the trailer and truck before it was moved.

Both the boy and the man lived at the home, authorities said.
