Adams County man killed in SW Mich. crash

WHITE PIGEON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Authorities have released the names of two Indiana men killed in a rollover crash on an icy southwestern Michigan roadway.

WLKM-FM reports they're identified as 50-year-old Chris Eicher of Portland, Ind., and 48-year-old Danny Graber of Geneva, Ind.

The St. Joseph County sheriff's department says they were among seven people riding in a van that crashed Wednesday morning in White Pigeon Township, about 30 miles south of Kalamazoo. Another passenger was airlifted to a hospital for treatment.

The deaths were among four reported Wednesday on icy roads in Michigan's Lower Peninsula. Other fatal crashes were in Eaton and Livingston counties.
