Gage W. Schmaltz, 19, was killed in a hit-and-run crash on a Saturday evening in Macomb County, Michigan. He was riding his 2007 Yamaha motorcycle eastbound on 26 Mile Road when a westbound 2005 Chevrolet Equinox turning left into a private driveway struck the motorcycle. Emergency responders found Schmaltz deceased at the scene.

The driver of the Equinox fled but the Macomb County Sheriff’s Office located the vehicle at a residence in New Baltimore and arrested a 29-year-old man from New Baltimore. He was charged with operating while intoxicated causing death, a 15-year felony, and leaving the scene of an accident causing death, a 5-year felony. He was arraigned in 42-1 District Court in Romeo and held on $750,000 bond; the case is pending further legal proceedings.
