A vehicle driven by 54 year old Trinka Rinard of Sturgis was also traveling east on U.S. 6 and told deputies she attempted to retrieve something from the floor of her vehicle and did not see Hartman had stopped. Rinard rear ended Hartman’s vehicle while traveling 55 MPH.

Hartman told deputies he hit his head during the collision but refused an EMS examination.
