Police believe alcohol and speed were factors connected to two separate accidents involving a White Cloud woman.

 

Mecosta County Sheriff deputies were called to a hit and run accident on 15 Mile Rd near Oakwood Dr in Big Rapids Twp late Friday afternoon.

 

That's where a 17-year old woman from Big Rapids was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by a 47-year old White Cloud woman.

 

The 47-year old driver then fled the scene and crashed a mile down the road after she had loss control and overturned. The White Cloud woman was taken to Spectrum Health Big Rapids Hospital for minor injuries.

 

The Big Rapids female was uninjured.
