The Berrien County Sheriff’s Department is trying to figure out why a Chicago-area woman stopped her Chevy Sonic in a driving lane on I-94 early Sunday morning, but they might never know. She was killed when her car was hit from behind by a Ford F-250 pickup pulling a camper trailer on eastbound I-94 at the 14 mile marker in Lake Township just after 2:30 Sunday morning. The pickup was driven by a Wisconsin man who told police a vehicle in front of him swerved to avoid the Sonic, but he wasn’t able to. The impact locked the vehicles together and sent them into the cable barriers. An autopsy will be done on the woman at Western Michigan University’s medical school in Kalamazoo to determine if drugs or alcohol were involved.
