Rochester woman arraigned, related to car crash that killed mother
Mount Clemens, Mich. – Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido announced that Sandra Webb, 60, of Rochester, Michigan, was arraigned on a criminal charge after allegedly causing a car crash that killed her mother.
It is alleged that on November 21, 2025, Webb was driving a 2025 Chevrolet Trax with her mother, 86-year-old Alice Toss, as a passenger. It is further alleged that Webb was traveling at speeds exceeding 70 miles per hour when she drove up a curb, crossed a yard and crashed into a residence on Frazho Road in Warren, Michigan. Webb and Toss were transported to area hospitals where Toss was declared deceased.
On Wednesday, August 12, 2026, Webb was arraigned before Judge Michael Chupa of the 37th District Court in Warren, Mich. Webb is charged with the following offense:
- Moving Violation Causing Death, a one-year misdemeanor.
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Anthony Sorentino represented the People and successfully argued for a cash bond based upon the charges and allegations. Judge Chupa set Webb’s bond at $30,000 cash/surety. If Webb posts bond, she must wear a GPS tether.
“The loss of a mother is heartbreaking under any circumstances, but this case is especially tragic because the defendant is the victim’s own daughter. While we cannot undo this loss, we will pursue justice based on the facts and evidence in this case,” stated Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.
The 37th District Court will schedule a Probable Cause Conference for Webb before Judge Steven Bieda.
The Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office represents the People. We are committed to achieving justice and following the laws of the State of Michigan. All individuals who are accused of a crime are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
