A 24-year-old Dowagiac man is in the Berrien County Jail in connection with a fatal accident Saturday night on Interstate 94 in Benton Township. Bo Parsons has been arrested after Michigan State Police say he crashed his car into Devante Fisher’s parked vehicle on I-94 just west of the I-94/I-196 interchange around 9 p.m. Saturday. He was killed while outside of the vehicle changing a tire. Parsons is facing charges of driving while intoxicated causing death. Michigan State Police tell us Parsons was driving between 30 and 80 miles an hour on the shoulder of the road before hitting Fisher’s car. Initial reports indicated there were injuries from inside Fisher’s car, but the latest statement from State Police investigators says he was the lone occupant of the vehicle.
