Father injured in Waterford crash that killed 6-year-old daughter dies from injuries
WATEFORD, Mich. - The father seriously injured in a crash that killed his daughter in Waterford has also died.
The two deaths are the result of a multi-vehicle crash last Wednesday when a 28-year-old man believed to be drunk slammed into the rear of an SUV carrying both the 6-year-old girl and her father.
The incident, caught on video, showed a Hyundai sedan speeding toward the intersection of M-59 and Airport Road and colliding with one vehicle, impacting two more in the process.

Moments before the crash occurred, police said they were getting calls about a sedan driving recklessly in the area. The violent crash was captured on surveillance video.
"It was like a bomb had gone off," said the woman in the fourth vehicle who witnessed the crash, Elizabeth Nestor. "It did shake our van a little bit. There was some smoke and parts all over the place and squealing tires."
Duncan had his bond set at $1 million when he was arraigned on charges on Friday. They included:
- Second-degree murder
- Operating while intoxicated causing death
- Reckless driving causing death
- Operating while intoxicated causing serious injury
- Reckless driving causing serious impairment.
A GoFundMe for the victims was set up over the weekend. You can find more information here.
