An overnight crash closed down a lane of the Michigan Street Bridge in Sturgeon Bay early Sunday morning. 

Sturgeon Bay Police officers responded to the Michigan Street Bridge near 1st Avenue just before 2:15 a.m. after the westbound traveling motorist lost control of their truck before crashing into a concrete wall. The contact sent the truck rotating clockwise across the roadway before it rolled over. The truck came to a stop on the driver’s side of the vehicle. According to the police report, the driver, who was underage, appeared to be asleep or fatigued following the crash and he was possibly under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

The results of the blood alcohol test are pending, but the driver was cited for operating a vehicle while under the influence.  While he did not need to be transported to the hospital to be treated for possible injuries, his truck did have to be towed away because of the damage it sustained. Crews were able to reopen the Michigan Street Bridge by 3:10 a.m. Sunday.
