Early Sunday morning, a vehicle crashed into the Ozaukee Campus of the Wisconsin Humane Society, located just west of the main entrance. The incident happened around 6:30 a.m. when the vehicle left westbound Highway 33 and struck the building. Fortunately, no animals or staff were injured, despite the damage caused.
The Wisconsin Humane Society facility is dealing with significant structural damage after a crash created a large hole in its side, particularly near the main entrance. While the animals and staff were unharmed, the driver involved in the incident was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. "As far as we understand, the driver was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries," said Angela Speed, vice president of marketing and communications. The building now requires "extensive repairs," according to JSOnline.
The Wisconsin Humane Society has adjusted its operations following a crash that affected their main entrance. To continue providing services, they are redirecting activities away from the damaged area, as noted in a statement shared with WISN.
Details about the cause of the accident are still unclear, but the community is affected by the crash involving a speeding car that hit the Humane Society building. The collision caused significant damage, and investigations are underway to determine what led to the incident. Authorities are expected to provide more information as they continue to look into the events, as relayed by TMJ4.
