CLARK COUNTY, WI (Wisconsin Radio Network) – A crash last week in central Wisconsin is among the deadliest in state history.
Eight people in a van and the driver of a semi truck were killed in the Friday morning collision at a highway intersection in Clark County.
While the Clark County Sheriff’s Office has not yet released the names of the victims, media reports and social media posts indicate some were members of an Amish community from the state of Virginia. A two-year-old boy in the van was the sole survivor.
Nine people were also killed in a collision in Manitowoc County in 1937. The state’s deadliest traffic incident remains a multi vehicle pileup on I-43 in October of 2002 in which 10 people died.
