Charlevoix Crash Causes Multiple Accidents

Posted: Updated:

A Cheboygan man driving through Charlevoix County early this morning swerved to miss a deer, only to hit a telephone pole instead.

The accident caused wires to fall across the road and on his car, on US-131 near State Street in Melrose Township.

It also led to another minor accident where a motorcycle hit some of the low hanging wires across State Street.

A pontoon boat parked along the highway was also damaged in the crash.

Crews shut down the highway for a little more than an hour.
