EDWARDSBURG, Mich. -- Officials have confirmed two people have died in a bad car accident on Elkhart Road just north of Redfield Road.

Officials say a small pickup truck was headed northbound and apparently hit a telephone pole, the stump of a tree and then flipped over. 

Two people have been confirmed dead on scene and a few homes are reported to be without power.

The authorities believe that weather and speed may have been a factor. 

The call came in at 8:02 and authorities are still on the scene gathering information right now.
