DETROIT – Police said a 27-year-old woman was found “not responsive” in the lanes of I-94 after being thrown from her vehicle as it crashed.
The crash happened at around 4:35 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 12, 2025, in the westbound lanes of I-94 near Woodward Avenue in Detroit.
Police said they received calls of a person in the left lane of I-94 that appeared to have been hit. When troopers arrived, they found she was not responsive and she was transported to an area hospital.
Investigators determined that the 27-year-old woman found in the roadway was the driver of a crashed Chevrolet Impala. The Impala was on the ramp when she lost control and ran off the ramp to the left, went down the embankment, and ended up in the right lane of westbound I-94.
During the crash she was thrown from the vehicle and landed on the left shoulder of I-94. Police said it does not appear a seatbelt was used at the time of the crash. Her family has been notified.
