A high-tech alert early led deputies to a collision in western Wisconsin that left both drivers dead, officials said.
The collision occurred shortly after 4 a.m. Friday in the 2200 block of County Hwy. DD in Baldwin Township, the St. Croix County Sheriff’s Office said.
A cellphone’s automatic crash notification drew deputies to the scene of the crash, the Sheriff’s Office said.
A car being driven by 18-year-old Cody W. Klasse, of Emerald, Wis., was heading west on Hwy. DD and collided with an eastbound SUV being driven by 24-year-old Maxwell L. Krueger, of Baldwin, according to the Sheriff’s Office. Both men died at the scene.
The Sheriff’s Office has yet to say on which side of the highway did the collision occur.
