Two injured in Kewaunee break wall collision

Two passengers were injured late Thursday night when their boat struck the break wall in the Kewaunee Harbor. The Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department received word of the incident just after 10:30 p.m. before the boat operator, a 58-year-old man from Manshein, Minn., confirmed that it had struck the stone protective barrier just north of the Kewaunee Lighthouse. Personnel from the Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department, Kewaunee Police, Kewaunee Rescue, Kewaunee Fire, United States Coast Guard, and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources all responded to the incident to safely transport the boat’s four passengers to shore. Two passengers were injured in the collision, one of which was transported to a Green Bay hospital to be treated for non-life-threatening injuries. The incident remains under investigation by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
