On Sunday, a 17-year-old Northville boy was driving a 1994 Jeep in Salem Township when he lost control, drove off the road and crashed into a tree.  Two 15-year-old kids were back seat passengers in the Jeep. Tragically, the male passenger was ejected from the car and killed.  The female passenger was also ejected from the back seat and was airlifted to U of M Hospital where she remains in critical condition.
