A March 13 traffic accident near the intersection of Ford and Telegraph Roads claimed the life of a 69-year-old Redford woman.
Police and fire responders from both Dearborn Heights and Dearborn were dispatched to the scene of a collision involving a Mercury Milan and Chevrolet Silverado pickup on Ford Road near North Vernon street (just West of Telegraph) at approximately 5:20 p.m. The woman, a passenger in the Milan, had to be extricated from the vehicle before being transported to a local hospital where she succumbed to her injuries.
Ford Rd was briefly closed while the incident was investigated and processed for evidence, and removal of the involved vehicles.
Dearborn Police Chief Jerrod Hart was grateful for the work of the responders who participated from both communities.
“We would like to thank our colleagues from both the Dearborn Heights and Dearborn Police and Fire Departments for their work in performing the traffic control and their assistance with patient treatment and transport throughout this incident,” he said.
The accident remains under investigation. Eyewitnesses to the incident are encouraged to contact the Dearborn Heights police at 313-277-6770.
