A Royal Oak man has been charged in connection with a fatal car crash on southbound I-75 and Mack in Detroit.
It is alleged that Douglas Muller, 25, caused the crash that killed Shelby Seyburn, 22, of Commerce Township, and Sydney Zaleski, 23, of White Lake.
The women were in the back of a Jeep that was struck as a result of a chain reaction crash "caused by Muller's reckless driving," Prosecutor Kym Worthy said.
Zaleski and Seyburn were childhood friends. Eight others were injured in the crash that involved five vehicles.
Muller has been charged with two counts of Reckless Driving Causing Death, two counts of Manslaughter and two counts of Moving Violation Causing Death.
