Dad grieves daughter, her boyfriend and his long time companion

The Detroit News published an interview today with Percy Shaw, the 71-year-old Detroit man whose car was disabled on I-94 Monday night. He told the News that he was returning from Chicago with his long time companion when the car began experiencing problems. He called his daughter in Detroit who drove to Battle Creek with her boyfriend to render assistance. It was they who died inside the second vehicle when a semi truck struck the second car from behind containing all but Shaw. The fiery crash occurred in Marengo Township just one mile east of Marshall at 8:30 p.m. Oct. 15. See the complete story in the Detroit News and the Chronicle's coverage in the Oct. 20 edition.
