Motorcyclist injured in hit-and-run accident

A 78-year-old Baileys Harbor woman received three citations for her role in a hit-and-run accident on Sunday that required a motorcyclist to be hospitalized. The accident occurred just before 1:45 p.m.on Sunday at the Egg Harbor Road roundabout in the Town of Sevastopol. According to the accident report, the 73-year-old motorcyclist from Algoma was traveling through the roundabout heading south on State Highway 42/57 when he was struck by the woman entering the traffic circle from Egg Harbor Road. After striking the motorcyclist, the woman continued around the roundabout and headed north on State Highway 42/57. The report does not say when deputies were able to track her down following the incident. The man was taken to Door County Medical Center to be treated for suspected minor injuries. The woman was cited for hit and run with injury, failing to yield right of way from a stop sign (resulting in bodily harm), and failing to notify police of an accident. The incident caused a lane of the roundabout to be closed for about 45 minutes so the motorcycle could be towed and the scene cleared.
