A Milaca woman suffered life-threatening injuries in a two-vehicle crash involving a semitrailer Saturday, Sept. 11, in Borgholm Township.
The Minnesota State Patrol reported 26-year-old Michael Read Greeley, of Milaca, was driving a 2012 International semitrailer east on Highway 23 and stopped to turn left onto northbound 90th Avenue at 4 p.m. Saturday, just west of Milaca. A 2005 Pontiac Montana, driven by 49-year-old Cheryl Lynn Propson, rear-ended the semitrailer when it stopped to turn.
Propson was transported to North Memorial Health Hospital in Robbinsdale for life-threatening injuries, while her passenger, 60-year-old Gregg Michael Propson of Onamia, was transported to Fairview Hospital in Princeton for non-life-threatening injuries.
Cheryl Propson was wearing a seat belt, according to the state patrol, but it is unknown if Gregg Propson had his seat belt on.
Greeley was not injured.
