PENN TOWNSHIP (WKZO AM/FM) — Cass County Deputies say at about 1 pm Thursday they were dispatched to Decatur Rd near M60 to investigate a crash.
They say 82 year old Burke Webb, of Marcellus, MI was driving southbound on Decatur Rd when he failed to recognize a semi with a trailer parked in the roadway with its hazard lights flashing
Webb rear-ended the trailer, receiving minor injuries. He was loaded into a Pride Care Ambulance and taken to Dowagiac Borgess Lee Memorial Hospital for treatment.
The driver of the truck was not in the vehicle when it was struck. Alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor.
Airbags were deployed in Mr. Webb’s vehicle and seatbelts were used.
