Two young men are dead after their car overturned and hit a utility pole in Antrim County.

21-year-old Tailee Fick, of East Jordan, and 19-year-old Mathew Warrington, also of East Jordan, were pronounced dead at the scene.

State Police believe the men were driving to work around 3:00 am, when they lost control around a curve. Fick, the driver, overcorrected, went off the left side of the road, overturned and hit a utility pole.

Alcohol is not believed to be a factor. State Police do believe this morning's fog may have played a part in the crash.
