LaMoille man killed after losing control on a curve

A dangerous stretch of Route 34 known as “Peterson’s Curve” took the life of a 25-year-old man from LaMoille.

Michael Griffin lost control of his car Sunday morning at the curve in Bureau County. He rolled his car several times into a field where he was pronounced dead by Bureau County Coroner Janice Wamhoff.

Wamhoff says he was buckled up and she doesn’t think alcohol played a role.
