Two injured in crash
On Sept. 20, at 6:48 p.m., the Crawford County Communications Center received a report of a two-vehicle, head-on collision on State Highway 60 near Eagle Lane in the township of Wauzeka.
Dakota P.L. Kull, 18, Wauzeka, was operating a 1996 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck eastbound on State Highway 60. Crystal M. Peer, 39, Boscobel, was operating a 2006 Ford Fusion SEL westbound on State Highway 60. Kull crossed the centerline into the westbound lane. Kull stated he received a call on his cell phone so he looked down. While doing so, Kull crossed the centerline into the path of the westbound Peer vehicle. The driver’s side of the Kull and Peer vehicles collided head-on.
Kull was transported by private vehicle to the Boscobel Gundersen Area Hospital. Peer was evaluated on scene but refused further medical attention. Peer’s 10-year-old passenger, Willow K. Peer, was uninjured. All occupants were wearing their seatbelts.
Kull was issued citations for no insurance, inattentive driving and operating left of center.
Assisting on scene were the Wauzeka First Responders, Wauzeka Fire Department, Boscobel Rescue Squad, Milo’s Towing and Fry’s Towing.
