MCSO responds to more than 60 winter-related crashes

MILWAUKEE COUNTY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A snowy night Thursday, Feb. 11 made for a slippery commute in southeast Wisconsin Friday morning, Feb. 12. The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office responded to more than 100 calls for services since Thursday evening. 

The sheriff's office says deputies responded to 60 property damage crashes, 10 crashes with injuries, and 40 crashes involving disabled vehicles. 

"Help us help you slow down," the MCSO said. 

Over 100 service calls in MKE Co. alone from last nights 1-2" of snow. Light snow has a greater impact on roads when temps are in the single digits (salt isn't effective when it's this cold).

With another 1-3" on the way for Saturday, plan on slick roads to start the weekend. https://t.co/fSX4lZkHnJ
