PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, WI – On June 6, 2025, at around 3:01 p.m., a two-car accident took place on Hwy 18 near Fuller Hollow Rd in Patch Grove Township, leading to minor injuries and traffic disruption.
The Grant County Sheriff’s Office disclosed that Cameron Laack, a 17-year-old from Dickeyville, was behind the wheel of a 2016 Chevy Express Van, heading westbound, with 19-year-old Ariana Hauck from Lancaster as his passenger. Simultaneously, Abby Dye, a 36-year-old from Lancaster, was driving a 2018 Chevy Tahoe eastbound, accompanied by a juvenile passenger.
Initial reports suggest that Laack’s van veered across the centerline, resulting in a head-on collision. Following the impact, both vehicles spun before coming to a halt on the roadway. All individuals involved were wearing seatbelts and suffered minor injuries; they were subsequently transported to local hospitals. Airbags deployed in both vehicles, which suffered substantial damage and were towed from the scene.
Responding to the incident were West Grant EMS, Bagley First Responders, Gundersen Tri-State Ambulance, along with the Bloomington and Patch Grove Fire Departments, and Milo’s Towing. The investigation into the crash is ongoing.
