Tree smashes car, injures driver

An 82-year-old Green Bay man suffered minor injuries after a falling tree struck his car as he was driving in Jacksonport on Wednesday. The incident occurred at 11:15 a.m. on Rushes Road near Wilderness Drive where crews were cutting down trees. According to the accident report from the Door County Sheriff’s Department, the Green Bay man said he encountered three traffic cones in the roadway and was told to stop by a condo association maintenance worker, but then he was motioned to proceed. He began driving again when a different member of the maintenance crew was trying to fell a tree across the roadway. The Green Bay man saw the tree falling before it crushed his sports utility. While the man suffered minor injuries, his wife was uninjured in the accident.
