MILWAUKEE, WI — A 63-year-old man died Thursday afternoon following a two-vehicle wreck in Milwaukee’s North Point area, according to TMJ4.
The Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office said the collision occurred on North Lincoln Memorial Road at Water Tower Road, just south of Bradford Beach.
Preliminary details indicate the 63-year-old man was driving northbound on Lincoln Memorial Road when he turned left onto westbound Water Tower Road. Moments later, his vehicle was struck by a southbound vehicle driven by a 19-year-old man. At least one of the vehicles caught fire as a result.
