A Sterling Heights man has been charged with a felony in connection with a Sept. 5 fatal crash in Oakland County, Michigan. 

Kevin Joseph Koldys, 51, is charged with operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated causing death, the Oakland County Sheriff's Office reported. Koldys was arraigned on Friday and given a $25,000 bond. He remains in the Oakland County Jail in the meantime. 

A probable cause conference is scheduled for Dec. 30, and the preliminary exam is set for Jan. 7. 

The charge resulted from a three-car crash on Pontiac Trail at Martin Parkway in Commerce Township.  

One of the drivers, Matthew John Szakal, 30, of Waterford Township, died as a result of the crash. Szakal was driving a Chevrolet Trax. Koldys, who was driving a Lexus RC, had serious injuries, according to news reports of the time. The third driver, a 64-year-old Wixom woman driving a Honda CR-V, had minor injuries. 

Authorities said Koldys was northbound on M-5 when he ran off the roadway and traveled several hundred feet through tall grass and weeds. He then got back on the roadway, jumping the curb in a roundabout, striking the Chevrolet and pushing it into the Honda.
