Tamara Lynette Green, 30, and her cousing, Gary Benjamin Green, 27, died in the crash, according to Green's father, Willie Sr. Gary Green was driving the vehicle that crashed on southbound Interstate 75 in Troy. The car was apparently traveling at a high rate of speed, Troy Police Lt. Robert Redmond told the Detroit Free Press.

We obviously wish Willie and his family the best.
