A Familiar Scene for Milwaukee Drivers
This is not the first time a vehicle has ended up inside a building in Milwaukee this month. Just three days earlier, on Sept. 13, a two-car crash sent one vehicle into the first floor of the 550 Ultra Lofts apartment building in downtown Milwaukee, according to a report from jsonline.com. That crash happened around 8:23 p.m. at North Sixth Street and West McKinley Avenue, where two vehicles collided before one crashed into the building.
One person had to be extricated from the vehicle that struck the McKinley Avenue building and was taken to a local hospital, per the same report. The impact also affected the apartment building.
60th and Capitol's Troubled History
The intersection near 60th and Capitol has seen tragedy before. Two 18-year-old men died after a separate crash near that same intersection, according to a report from wisn.com. In that incident, Milwaukee police said the driver of a stolen car ran a red light and was struck by another vehicle.
It is not known whether Wednesday's crash is connected in any way to past incidents at the intersection, and the available reporting does not indicate the number of vehicles involved this time or what led up to the impact. The scale of the problem, however, is not established by the available reporting.
FOX6 News has indicated it will update its report as more details emerge about Wednesday's crash near 60th and Capitol. Hoodline will continue to follow the story as additional information becomes available.
