BATTLE CREEK, Mich. — Two people have died after a car crashed into a home Thursday night, says the Battle Creek Police Department.
The occupants of the car were identified as 67-year-old Barbara Weaver and 72-year-old Willie Stokes. First responders attempted life-saving measures, but were unsuccessful.
