An 18-year-old Sturgeon Bay woman was taken to Door County Medical Center for possible injuries following a two-vehicle accident in the Town of Gardner on Monday.

At approximately 10:50 a.m., The Door County Sheriff’s Department, Brussels-Union-Gardner Fire Department, Door County Emergency Medical Services, and other First Responders reported to the corner of Stevenson Pier Road and County Highway C where an agricultural semi-truck struck the woman’s car. According to the accident report, the woman was driving south on Stevenson Pier Road when she paused at the stop sign and did not notice the truck barreling at her. The truck’s driver, a 22-year-old Kewaunee man, told the deputy that he hit the brakes hard to avoid the collision, but still ended up striking the car’s rear bumper, sending the woman spinning approximately 270 degrees before it came to a rest. While the woman was taken to the hospital, her dog was taken to the Wisconsin Humane Society- Door County campus for safe keeping. She was cited for failing to yield from a stop sign.
