Two brothers died five days apart after being struck while cycling in Michigan, United States. The first accident occurred while the two were riding together on a road in the area. One of the brothers was hit by the vehicle and did not survive the impact.

The second brother suffered serious injuries in the same incident and was hospitalized in critical condition. Despite medical efforts, he died five days after the first hit-and-run, leaving the family devastated by the loss of both brothers in such a short time.

The driver responsible for striking the two cyclists is a 64-year-old woman. She was submitted to alcohol and drug tests immediately after the accident. According to authorities, both tests performed on the driver came back negative.

The case is under investigation by local authorities in Michigan, who are analyzing the full circumstances of the accident. Police have not yet released details about what caused the two cyclists to be struck on the road where the incident occurred.
