On Saturday, January 28 at 3:24 AM, the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office responded to a motor vehicle crash at the intersection of County Highway A and County Highway W in Oak Grove.

Preliminary investigation showed that a 24-year-old man from Horicon was driving a 1996 Toyota sedan East on County Highway W. A 57-year-old Watertown man was driving a 2009 Kenworth semi tractor pulling an empty fuel tank trailer North on County Highway A. The Toyota failed to stop for the stop sign and hit the rear wheels of the semi.

The driver of the Toyota and a 24-year-old passenger suffered serious injuries in the crash. The driver of the semi was not injured.

The driver of the Toyota was transported to Beaver Dam Hospital and the passenger was transported to Oconomowoc Hospital.

Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the crash.

County Highway A was closed for more almost four hours while the crash was being investigated.
