2 hospitalized in multi-semi-truck crash near Parma
LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — A crash on I-94 in Jackson County involving multiple semi-trucks sent two people to the hospital Friday, according to the Jackson County Sheriff's Office.
According to a released Sunday, deputies responded to a crash involving three semi-trucks and a pickup truck located in the westbound lanes of I-94 near Parma Rd. at around 10:56 a.m. Friday.
The sheriff's office says one of the semi-trucks failed to yield to slowing traffic, crashing into the other vehicles. The driver of that truck was trapped inside and needed to be rescued.
Two others were transported to a nearby hospital, with one of them having sustained critical, injuries. Since then, though, the sheriff's office says their condition 'has been upgraded to serious.'
