Icy roads and high winds are being blamed for a crash that sent one person to the hospital.
A 25-year-old Florida man was towing a trailer north on State Highway 57 near County Highway T at 6:10 p.m. Sunday when he lost control. The vehicle and trailer jackknifed and slid off the roadway into a nearby ditch.
Due to the conditions, the vehicle was red-tagged so it could be removed at a later time.
The driver was not injured, but his 23-year-old female passenger was taken to Door County Medical Center for treatment of a possible injury.
No citations were issued in connection with the crash.
The incident was part of a busy stretch for the Door County Sheriff’s Office, which responded to three crashes and one report of a vehicle in a ditch between 6 p.m. Sunday and 2 a.m. Monday.
