Teens injured, one cited in one-vehicle crash
Two teens suffered possible injuries as the result of a one-vehicle crash Sunday evening. The accident occurred on Birch Lane near Bay Shore Drive in the Town of Egg Harbor at about 7:10 p.m. According to the accident report, a 15-year-old Fish Creek boy was driving on an instruction permit with an 18-year-old Sturgeon Bay man when they lost control of the vehicle. After driving into a ditch on one side of the road, the vehicle fishtailed and slid across the road into a tree. The Fish Creek boy told the responding deputy that they were out for a drive and that speed may have been a factor, though he could not recall how fast he was driving. The individuals in the car were also not wearing seat belts. The accident took about 90 minutes to clean up and tow the vehicle away. The driver was cited for failing to keep the vehicle under control, not wearing a seat belt, and operating a vehicle after dark without a person over the age of 25.
