Traffic crashes kill 3
Three people died in traffic accidents over the weekend, including a married couple whose vehicle swerved out of control on a snowy freeway in Sterling Heights during a late autumn storm.
Falling snow Saturday evening turned to heavy rain Sunday as temperatures climbed to the 48-degree mark and caused travel difficulties for motorists.
Temperatures today are expected to plunge with wind-chill factors making it frigid outside.
A Utica man and his wife died Saturday night when their 2006 Ford truck crashed on M-53 south of M-59 (Hall Road), according to a news release from Sterling Heights police.
