A 40-year-old Sturgeon Bay woman received three citations stemming from a single-vehicle accident in the Town of Sevastopol Saturday night. The accident occurred at approximately 9 p.m. on Bayshore Drive near North Shoreside Circle.

According to the accident report, the woman was driving southbound on Bayshore Drive when she encountered a deer in the roadway. She swerved to avoid the deer but ended up driving off the roadway and into a utility pole. The vehicle came to rest on its side a short distance from where it struck the pole, and emergency responders had to assist the driver in getting out.

She suffered minor injuries as a result of the crash but was not transported to the hospital. She was issued three citations: failure to keep a vehicle under control, operating a vehicle while under the influence, and operating with a prohibited alcohol concentration. Toxicology results are still pending.

Deputies responded to several similar cases over the weekend, according to the Door County Dispatch Report, which showed three car-versus-deer accidents and four DUI incidents.
