(CBS DETROIT) – A Michigan man died Friday, two weeks after he was injured in a single-vehicle crash in Oakland County, the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office said.
The crash happened on Nov. 15 near Clarkston and Clintonville roads in Independence Township.
The sheriff’s office says the 51-year-old Independence Township man was driving a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado when he crossed the center line, went off the road and struck a tree. The municipal fire brigade removed the man from the truck and transported him to hospital.
He died at his home on Nov. 29, the sheriff’s office said.
Investigators believe speed was a factor in the crash and determined the man was not wearing a seat belt. They don’t believe he was drunk.
The crash remains under investigation by the sheriff’s office crash reconstruction unit.
