One person sent to hospital following two-vehicle accident
ELY TOWNSHIP — One person was injured in a two vehicle accident early Tuesday morning in Ely Township.
The Marquette County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to a personal injury accident on US-41 and County Road 478 just before 8 a.m. Leah Wisuri, 17, of Ishpeming pulled onto US-41 when she lost control of her 1997 Mercedes Benz and spun around on US-4, facing North. She was crashed into on the passenger side by a westbound 2005 Dodge Ram Pickup Truck driven by sixty-six year-old Richard Taylor of Arizona.
Wisuri’s vehicle ended up in the ditch sideways on the driver’s side and Taylor’s vehicle came to a rest on top of the passenger side of the other vehicle. Wisuri was evacuated through the front windshield and transported to Bell Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries. She was also cited for failure to yield.
