Two crashes within a little over an hour landed four people in the hospital yesterday (May 4th).
The Green Bay Police Department was first called to the area of Highway 54/57, also known as Sturgeon Bay Road, near North Huron Road/Bay Settlement Road at 10:45 a.m. on a report of a three-vehicle crash.
A 77-year-old Oconto Falls woman was taken to a local hospital with potentially life-threatening injuries, while a 95-year-old Oconto Falls man in the same vehicle and a 61-year-old Luxemburg woman in the second vehicle each sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the third vehicle was uninjured.
Then, while officers were still on the scene of the first crash, another occurred in the same area just after noon.
A 16-year-old Luxemburg female suffered non-life-threatening injuries in that incident, while the driver of a second vehicle was uninjured.
The cause of the initial crash is still under investigation, while the second crash was believed to have been caused by inattentive driving.
The Green Bay Police Department was assisted at the scene by the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, the State Patrol, and UW – Green Bay Police.
