It happened on County Road 27 between Flos Road 11 East and Baseline Road.

Police said two people — an 80-year-old man and a 77-year-old woman — died at the scene.

Midland resident Spencer Fulton, 30, has since been charged with two counts of dangerous operation causing death, as well as operation while prohibited.
