MANITOWOC COUNTY (NBC 26) — The Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Office says local authorities responded to a two-vehicle crash at 7:01 Saturday morning on State Highway 57/32 near Cemetery Road.
Preliminary investigation shows that a 17-year-old girl from Sheboygan was driving south on Highway 57/32 when she lost control of her car and crossed into oncoming traffic. She was then struck by an SUV driven by a 65-year-old man from Port Washington.
The sheriff’s office says the teen was pronounced dead at the scene and the SUV driver was transported to a medical facility with serious but non-life threatening injuries.
The Wisconsin State Patrol is now completing a reconstruction of the crash for further investigation.
