BAYFIELD COUNTY, WI (KDAL) – A 77 year old man from Ashland was killed in a two vehicle crash Tuesday on Highway 2 in Bayfield County.
The Wisconsin State Patrol says a westbound pickup, driven by the victim, lost control, crossed the center line and struck an eastbound semi.
The victim, identified as Anthony Basley, died at the scene and a 44 year old passenger in the pickup was taken to St. Mary’s Medical Center in Duluth with non-life threatening injuries.
Slippery road conditions were a factor in the crash that occurred just before 10 a-m on Tuesday.
(The age of the victim was first listed as 57 and later corrected to 77 by the State Patrol)
