The Door County Sheriff’s Office released more details Monday about a one-vehicle crash that sent two people to the hospital and highlighted the actions of several rescuers.

Emergency crews were dispatched to County Road S near Tagge Road shortly after 5:20 p.m. According to the sheriff’s office, the driver was towing a trailer and heading north when the vehicle crossed into the southbound lane, left the roadway, and struck a tree and a nearby parked vehicle.

The first deputy on scene found the driver, a 40-year-old Sister Bay man, lying on the ground outside the vehicle, while the passenger, a 28-year-old woman from Kewaunee, remained inside.

Chief Deputy Kyle Veeser confirmed witness reports that a sheriff’s deputy, a Nasewaupee first responder and other bystanders helped remove the passenger shortly before the vehicle became fully engulfed in flames. The sheriff’s office later commended Deputy Andrew Janikowski and emergency medical responders Caleb Meier, Michael Depner Jr. and John Sperber for their actions during the incident. The department also said Janikowski was taken to Door County Medical Center after experiencing breathing issues.

Both the man and woman were transported to a Green Bay hospital for treatment. The vehicles were towed from the scene, and County Road S reopened before 9 p.m. following investigation and cleanup.

The Sister Bay man was cited for operating while intoxicated causing injury, knowingly operating with a revoked license causing great bodily harm, failure to keep a vehicle under control, and deviation from a designated lane.
