First Snow Fall Of The Season Brings Tragedy

An 18-year-old woman lost her life Friday. She didn’t have to. Brittany Marie Nowicki was a passenger in a Jeep that was being driven by an 18-year-old man. The snow was falling creating a need for caution by the early morning drivers. As the driver of the Jeep was traveling eastbound on Plum Brook Drive just east of Schoenherr around 5:30 a.m., he came upon a slower vehicle. The driver of the Jeep tried to pass the slower vehicle in snowy conditions and lost control and hit a westbound vehicle. The crash caused the Jeep to roll over and Brittany was ejected. She was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Jeep is in critical condition at Henry Ford Macomb Hospital. The driver of the vehicle hit by the Jeep was injured but the extent of his injuries remains unknown.
