OCEANA COUNTY, Mich. – A father and daughter were killed in a single-vehicle crash Tuesday night in Northern Michigan.
WPBN reports the crash happened on US-31 near West Hammett Road in Pentwater Township (about 16 miles south of Ludington) around 9:44 p.m. Tuesday.
Police said a 2013 GMC Yukon, driven by Mark Hezlep, 52 of South Bend, Indiana, had drifted off the road, went into the median and hit a large tree.
Hezlep's daughter, Casey Emmons, 26 of Lakeville, Indiana, was in the front passenger seat at the time of the crash.
The crash remains under investigation, but investigators told WPBN there is a suspicion of fatigue involved.
