On Thursday, May 29, 2024, at around 4:15 PM, The Monroe County 911 Communications Center received a
911 call regarding a motorcycle vs SUV crash at the intersection of Ironwood Rd and County Highway A in the
Tomah Township. Both vehicles sustained severe damage, which caused the eastbound lane of County Highway
A to be closed for approximately forty-five minutes for emergency personnel to investigate and safely land
Gundersen Air.
The initial investigation revealed that the SUV driver was stopped on Ironwood Road and proceeded into the
intersection to cross County Highway A. The SUV driver looked but did not see the motorcycle traveling East
on County Highway A. The motorcycle impacted the SUV on the passenger side, causing both vehicles to
become disabled.
The driver of the SUV called 911 and rendered aid to the motorcycle operator. The motorcycle operator
sustained severe injuries in the crash and was airlifted from the scene by Gundersen Air to a local La Crosse,
WI, hospital.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the crash.
