Police: 3 Dead Following Wrong-Way Crash on I-75 in Detroit

DETROIT (AP) — State police say three people have died following a crash involving a wrong-way driver on Interstate 75 in Detroit.

Police say the two-vehicle crash happened early Wednesday along southbound I-75, near the I-94 exit, and at least one of the vehicles burned.

According to police, two other people were taken to hospitals for treatment. Police earlier said that three people were among the injured.
