MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – One man was killed and a woman was hurt after a two-vehicle crash in Polk County, Wis., early Friday morning.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of a crash at about 12:36 a.m. at the intersection of County Highway N and County Highway Z in Laketown Township. When authorities arrived, a 33-year-old man from Luck, Wis., was pronounced dead at the scene. A 46-year-old woman was pinned in her car and had to be extricated.

Authorities determined that the woman was driving a 1997 Mercury Mountainer SUV westbound on county Highway N when she hit a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse that had entered County Highway N after being at a stop sign.
