Sister Bay man, dog injured in single-vehicle accident
A Sister Bay man was cited for inattentive driving after he crashed on Mink River Road in the Town of Liberty Grove Tuesday afternoon. The accident occurred just after 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday when the man was driving southbound in his sports utility vehicle and tending to his dog when he briefly left the road. When he left the roadway, his vehicle struck a utility pole and a driveway embankment, which sent him airborne over a driveway. His vehicle came to rest on the other side of the driveway and overturned. When emergency personnel arrived, the man driving the car had a large contusion and blood on his forehead. The accident report also noted that the dog, who was in the back seat of the vehicle at the time of the crash, was severely injured. The man was transported to Door County Medical Center for treatment.
