Woman in St. Ignace crash identified

ST. IGNACE, MI--   Officials have identified the person who died in a two-vehicle accident in Mackinac County over the weekend. 

The crash happened Sunday around 9:30 a.m. on US-2 near St. Ignace.  A westbound vehicle had pulled onto the eastbound shoulder to turn into a scenic overlook when it struck a truck towing a camper and boat.  The truck swerved across the eastbound lanes and hit a tree. 

The Mackinac County Sheriff’s Office says 66-year-old Mary Catherine Keller—a passenger in the truck—was killed in the crash.

The four occupants of the car were taken to Mackinac Straits Hospital with minor injuries.
