NAHMA -- A Rapid River woman was killed in an ORV crash in Nahma Friday, Michigan State Police at the Gladstone POst said. LeeAnne Moore, 52, of Rapid River was killed in the crash.
Troopers were dispatched to a report of an ORV crash on 27.25 Rd near KK Rd in Nahma Township Friday at approximately 3:30 p.m. Upon arrival, troopers observed a deceased woman who was underneath a Polaris Razr ORV. Moore was the passenger in the vehicle. The driver of the ORV, also from Rapid River, was ejected from the ORV and sustained several injuries, none of which appeared to be life threatening.
The investigation showed the ORV was traveling west on 27.25 Rd near KK Rd when it is believed a blown tire caused a loss of control. The ORV then rolled over and both occupants were ejected from the ORV. Neither driver or passenger were wearing a seat belt or helmet. Speed is thought to be a factor in this crash and the incident remains under investigation.
Troopers were assisted by Garden Fire/EMS, Nahma Fire/EMS, and Rampart EMS.
