Fatal Detroit car crash death of Kwasi Agbottah – Obituary

A tragic crash in Detroit claimed the lives of Kwasi Agbottah, 43, and Elizabeth Agbottah, 41, after they were struck while waiting at a bus stop. Authorities have charged 33-year-old Dejah Latre Berry in connection with the incident.

The Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office announced that Berry faces two counts of reckless driving causing death and two counts of driving on a suspended, revoked, or denied license causing death. She was arraigned on Monday and released on a $50,000 bond with conditions including house arrest and a GPS tether.

The collision occurred on April 25 at Evergreen Road and Fenkell Avenue. Prosecutors allege that Berry was speeding when she lost control of her vehicle, veered across lanes, and hit the Agbottahs. Both victims were taken to the hospital but later succumbed to their injuries.

Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy expressed frustration, stating, “Drivers are behaving as though traffic laws don’t apply. That seems to be the case here, and as a result, two innocent people are dead.”

Berry is scheduled to appear in court again on April 30 for a bond redetermination, with additional hearings set for May 7 and May 14.
