Nov. 1, 2018 – Dodge Co., WI – The Dodge County Sheriff’s Office is currently at the scene of a serious traffic crash on US HWY 151 near County Highway C in the Township of Trenton, between Beaver Dam and Waupun.

Northbound traffic in the area is backed up, but moving along the shoulder past the scene.

At about 7:48 p.m. this evening Nov. 1, 2018, 911 calls reported a crash with injuries and road blockage.

The crash involved two vehicles.

The operator and sole occupant of a passenger car was flown from the scene via Flight For Life with life-threatening injuries.  The driver and passenger from a pickup truck were evaluated by medical personnel, but not transported by EMS.

The investigation is in very early stages, but lack of seat belt usage is a factor in the seriousness of injury.

Beaver Dam Fire and Paramedics, Flight For Life, and DCERT are assisting the Sheriff’s Office at the scene.  The crash remains under investigation and no additional information will be available for at least 24 hours.
