LIVONIA, Mich. – An 11-year-old girl remains in critical condition after being ejected from a car during a crash Sunday afternoon on I-275 in Livonia.
Michigan State Police said the girl and two others were in a Ford Taurus going southbound near Six Mile Road when the car lost control, slid into the median and hit a catch fence.
All three of the victims were thrown from the car, but the 11-year-old was then reportedly hit by a car that was going northbound.
This crash happened in front of a trooper who was clearing from another nearby accident.
The trooper was able to move the child to safety on the side of the road.
The 11-year-old was taken to Botsford Hospital then transported via life flight to the University of Michigan for treatment.
The other passengers have been treated and released.
