Deputy Nick Laffoon investigated a single-vehicle crash on Sycamore Road early New Year’s Day. The accident sent a Walkerton man to Memorial Hospital in South Bend.
At 1:13 a.m. on January 1st, the Marshall County Central Dispatch Center received an automated collision alert from a cell phone on Sycamore Road north of 9th Road.
The first responders found that a 2021 Kia passenger car had run north off the roadway, over an embankment, and down a steep slope onto railroad property. The driver and only occupant of the vehicle was found in the car.
27-year-old Bryce P. Kessler of Walkerton received a head injury during the collision. He was transported to Memorial Hospital by Plymouth Fire.
The collision is still under investigation, but alcohol is believed to have been a factor. After completing the investigation, a case report will be submitted to the Marshall County Prosecutor's Office for possible charges.
Marshall County Police were assisted at the scene by Plymouth Fire and Reichert's Towing.
