A Holland Township man lost his life after being involved in a second fatal crash in just a matter of days. 43-year-old Chieu Tran was a passenger in the accident that took his life.
The accident took place a week ago at Quincy Street in Holland Township. The at-fault driver’s name is not being mentioned because he is pending criminal charges. At the time, the driver was riding along in his 2007 Ford Taurus going northbound. He failed to stop at a stop sign. They were then struck in the passenger side by a 2007 Express cargo van driven by 20-year-old Mary Duren.
Duren and her passenger were wearing seatbelts and both suffered minor injuries. They were released at the scene after refusing medical treatment. The at-fault driver facing charges suffered injuries and was released from the hospital.
Chieu Tran suffered serious injuries and was taken to Zeeland Community Hospital. However, he had to undergo surgery at Spectrum Butterworth Hospital so he was transferred. He died in surgery.
