On Thursday afternoon, a semi-truck collided with multiple vehicles at the intersection of Green Bay Road and 52nd Street in Kenosha, nearly hitting a Culver's restaurant. The Kenosha Police Department is investigating the crash, which occurred around 3:20 p.m. The intersection was closed for more than two hours for cleanup and investigation, as per TMJ4.
The incident began when the semi-truck, traveling west on 52nd Street, failed to properly make a turn onto Green Bay Road. The truck subsequently slammed into four vehicles that were stopped at a red light, then continued to careen across all lanes of 52nd Street before coming to rest at the nearby Culver's parking lot. This detail was confirmed by reports from both WISN and an interview with witness Alonso who told TMJ4, “It was almost like way too close to the building. Like 10 inches…like 5. That was crazy."
Kenosha Police confirmed that one driver sustained a significant injury and was taken to the hospital, while the other drivers had minor injuries. The details of the individuals' conditions have not been released. CBS58 also reported that the accident is still under investigation.
A semi-truck collided and came to rest on Culver's property, causing traffic disruptions and affecting the neighborhood. Tow trucks were called in to remove the vehicles involved, which led to the intersection being closed for an extended period. Multiple agencies responded to clear the scene and ensure safety.
