By Beth Milligan | Oct. 29, 2020

A Kingsley man has been charged in connection to the death of a jogger on River Road in Traverse City in August.

Daniel Dinsmore, 42, faces a misdemeanor charge of a moving violation causing death. The charge is punishable by up to a year in prison and up to a $2,000 fine. Dinsmore is charged with hitting and killing 19-year-old Nadia Ziegler of East Bay Township while she was jogging on River Road this summer. Dinsmore, who was reportedly distracted at the time of the crash, called 911, and the woman was rushed to the hospital, where she died of her injuries.

Dinsmore willingly turned himself in when an arrest warrant was issued in the case earlier this month. Drugs and alcohol are not suspected factors in the crash, according to the Michigan State Police.
