RILEY TWP. — A 17-year-old DeWitt boy suffered life-threatening injuries Saturday when the vehicle he was driving was struck by a commercial vehicle.

The teen, who was eastbound on Pratt Road, drove into the path of the northbound commercial vehicle, deputies said.

The 26-year-old Grand Rapids man who was driving the commercial vehicle suffered minor injuries and was treated at the scene. The 17-year-old was transported to Sparrow Hospital.

This crash remains under investigation.

Deputies were assisted at the scene by Michigan State Police, Dewitt Area Fire, Westphalia Fire, Mercy Ambulance and Clinton County Road Commission. Clinton County Central Dispatch also assisted.

Instagram confirms test of 'unskippable' ads
Instagram confirmed it's testing unskippable ads after screenshots of the feature began circulating across social media. The change would see the social network becoming more like the free version of YouTube, which requires users to view ads before and in the middle of watching videos. It makes sense that Instagram would consider going this route, too, given that it has also shifted over the years to become more of a video-sharing network, thanks to features like Stories and Reels, rather than a place to only share still photos.
