MACOMB TWP. (WWJ) - A 62-year-old Grosse Pointe man was killed, Tuesday afternoon, in a head-on crash in Macomb Township.

A stretch of 23 Mile Road remained closed for several hours during an investigation, following the crash at around 2 p.m. 


According to the Macomb County Sheriff's Office, a cement truck was traveling eastbound on 23 Mile, just west of Card Road, when it collided head-on with a gray Cadillac traveling westbound. 

The driver of the Cadillac, identified as Robert Veneri, was killed.

Reporting from the scene, WWJ's Jon Hewett said it's not yet known if, or how seriously, the truck driver was injured. 

It's unclear who was at fault for the wreck. Investigators said both drivers were wearing their seat belts and drugs or alcohol do not appear to be factors at this time.

The Macomb County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate this crash.
