MNDOT Snowplow Involved in Fatal Crash
(Duluth, MN) MNN-- A Brookston man is dead following a head-on crash with a snowplow in the Floodwood area.
The Minnesota State Patrol says the wreck happened just before 10 p.m. Wednesday night. Investigators say pick-up driven by 19-year-old Winston Lahti was heading east on Highway Two when he swerved into the other lane and collided, head-on, with the MnDOT snowplow.
The force of the crash sent the pickup truck rolling onto its side on the south shoulder, killing the teenage driver. The plow driver, a 47-year-old Duluth woman, was transported to a Duluth Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
