Chicago woman dies in Gibraltar crash

A rear-end collision in the town of Gibraltar killed an 82-year-old Chicago woman and injured another person over the weekend. According to the release from the Door County Sheriff’s Department on Tuesday, deputies responded to the scene just north of Cottage Row Road on State Highway 42 Saturday afternoon. The initial investigation shows the woman driving a sedan struck a sports-utility vehicle from behind as it waited to turn into a business. The driver of the sports-utility vehicle, a 33-year old Hortonville woman, and her passenger had no apparent injuries. The woman driving the sedan and her passenger were transported to Door County Medical Center for treatment of their injuries. The woman was then airlifted to a Green Bay hospital where she later died. The Door County Sheriff’s Department was notified of the death on Sunday. No other information about the victims is being released at this time until family members are notified. State Highway 42 was closed for about 45 minutes on Saturday before it was reopened shortly before 5:30 p.m. Door County Emergency Services, Gibraltar Fire Department and Gibraltar First Responders also responded to the incident.
