Troopers Locate Hit And Run Driver From Branch County Case
Michigan State Police Troopers are reporting a break in the hit and run crash where three children on bicycles were run down Monday afternoon just outside the Village of Sherwood in Branch County. Troopers say an alert area resident directed troopers working the case to a residence near Sturgis. There, troopers found a silver 2005 Chevy Equinox with damages matching the description they originally used, asking for help to locate the suspect vehicle and driver.
While that was going on, physicians at Bronson Methodist Hospital in Kalamazoo continued to care for one of the children who suffered life-threatening injuries and remains in critical condition. Another sibling has had surgery for a serious leg injury. The third child from the family struck by the hit-and-run driver was not seriously hurt.
