A 9-year-old Kimberly girl is dead after a semi-tractor hit her in Outagamie County Friday afternoon, according to a news release from the Outagamie County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies were called to the intersection of Washington Street and Wallace Street in the Village of Combined Locks shortly after 3 p.m., deputies said.
The initial investigation shows the girl was crossing Washington Street and a semi-tractor hit her, deputies said.
A 59-year-old Kaukauna man was driving the semi-tractor, deputies said.
The girl was taken to a local hospital, where she died.
The driver remained on scene and is cooperating with authorities, deputies said.
Security footage and initial witness interviews "... suggest speed was not a factor in this tragic crash," the news release said.
