NEGAUNEE TOWNSHIP, MI-- A rollover accident in Negaunee Township has injured one person.
Troopers from the Negaunee Post say the crash happened Sunday around 1:30 p.m. on US-41 just east of Midway Drive near the Midway Industrial Park. Lige Johnson, 52, of Negaunee was westbound when he drifted onto the paved median, over-corrected, and lost control of his Trailblazer. The vehicle then crossed both westbound lanes, went into the ditch, and overturned, trapping Johnson inside.
The Marquette County Extrication Unit freed Johnson, who was taken to U.P. Health System Marquette with non-life-threatening injuries.
Johnson was wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident.
