Snow, ice, and speed cause multiple crashes in Sands Township

SANDS TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WZMQ) – At least one person was hospitalized after multiple crashes at an intersection in Sands Township Tuesday morning.

The Marquette County Sheriff’s Office was first called around 7:09 a.m. to County Road 480 and Cherry Creek Rd. A 25-year-old man from Traunik was traveling westbound on CR480 when he hit a patch of ice and went into the ditch. His passenger, a 51-year-old Marquette man, received minor injuries.

Shortly after that, a head-on collision occurred between a 19-year-old man from Marquette and a 60-year-old woman from Palmer. The woman was transported to UP Health System- Marquette for non-life-threatening injuries. A second crash then occurred between the 19-year-old and a 41-year-old man from Negaunee. The 19-year-old was found at fault for the crash and was cited. Snow, ice, and speed are believed to be factors.

Due to the traffic backup, a semi-truck became stuck in the roadway on a patch of ice but was not involved in the crash.

The Marquette County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by Chocolay Township Police Department, Chocolay Township Fire Department, Sands Township Fire Department, Sands Township EMS, UP Health System EMS, Marquette County Rescue 131, Anttila’s Towing, and Crossroads Towing,
