Alcohol Cited As Possible Factor in Injury Wreck

Authorities in Marshall County believe alcohol may have been a factor in a fiery Sunday night crash. It happened around 5 p.m. in the area of 3A Road between East Shore Drive and Plymouth-Goshen Trail. The crash report indicates 28-year-old Frank T. Galos was westbound on 3A Road and struck the rear of a car driven by Michelle Shupert of Bremen.

One of the vehicles caught fire and was extinguished by the Bremen Fire Department. Both Galos and Shupert complained of pain and were taken to Bremen Community Hospital. From there Galos was moved to Memorial Hospital of South Bend. The crash investigation is ongoing, but it is believed Galos may have been intoxicated. Information will be forwarded to the prosecutor’s office.
