Sturgeon Bay woman seriously injured in single vehicle crash

An 84-year-old Sturgeon Bay woman had to be transported to Door County Medical Center after she was ejected from her vehicle and her leg partially run over on Saturday. The accident occurred near the intersection of Michigan Street and 2nd Avenue before 10 a.m. on Saturday. According to the accident report, the woman was in the parking lot of a nearby gas station when her minivan rolled backward down the driveway and into a nearby utility pole.  Emergency personnel found the woman outside of her vehicle with her door open, resting on the pole, and a portion of her front driver’s side tire resting on her leg. The Sturgeon Bay Fire Department was able to jack the car up high enough to remove the woman so she could get treatment. While the woman believed she had parked the car, firefighters reported that the car had been found in reverse. The minivan was stopped thanks to the open car door striking the utility pole, though that is also when the woman fell out of the vehicle trying to get out at the gas station. The car was towed from the scene, and no citations were given.
