A 40-year-old man has pleaded guilty to a charge related to a distracted driving crash that killed a 13-year-old western Michigan boy.
The Holland Sentinel reports Tuesday that Travis Fox will be sentenced Dec. 22.
Fox of Crown Point, Indiana, entered the plea Nov. 17 to the one-year misdemeanor.
Police were told he was eating a sandwich and checking his GPS while driving Aug. 3 on Interstate 196 in Georgetown Township, southwest of Grand Rapids. Traffic in front of him had slowed for a construction zone.
David Talsma of Hudsonville was in the backseat of a vehicle that was struck in the crash.
Defense attorney Charles Chamberlain said Fox was in Michigan on business at the time of the crash and has "taken this very seriously."
