Skeels Rd. crash claims life of local teenager, hospitalizes her brother

A 16-year-old girl died, and her 17-year-old brother suffered serious injuries, after a car struck their bicycles at 6:30 p.m. Friday on Skeels Road east of Montague, the Michigan State Police said.
An obituary posted at the Kroeze-Wolffis funeral home’s website identified Kari Miller, a Holton resident, as the girl who died in the crash.
The collision took place on Skeels Road, with both the car and the bicyclists traveling westbound. The car, an SUV, was driven by a 35-year-old female, MSP’s Sixth District reported on its X page.
Both teenagers are members of the Amish community. The X posts said more information will be released as it becomes available.
