OZAUKEE COUNTY, WI — Two people were injured in a multi-vehicle wreck last Friday, July 22, on County Highway I near the Town of Cedarburg, reports Washington County Insider.
The Ozaukee County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene at the intersection with Pleasant Valley Road at around 2:51 p.m.
According to officials, a 17-year-old boy was driving a 2020 Volvo SUV eastbound on Pleasant Valley Road when he failed to yield to traffic at the highway. Moments later, the Volvo collided with a 2008 Honda Civic heading southbound on CTH I. The contact caused the Honda to overturn and hit a 2020 Ford Edge traveling northbound on the highway.
