Road conditions blamed in fatal crash

RACINE, Wis. (AP) - Authorities say slick roads were a factor in a fatal crash in Racine County.

A pickup truck and car collided in the Town of Dover about 5:30 a.m. Tuesday. Sheriff's officials say the female driver of the Prius was partially ejected and the pickup caught fire.

The driver of the car was taken to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead. The sheriff's department did not immediately release the condition of the pickup driver.

Deputies say the Prius was southbound on Highway 75, began to fish tail, crossed over the center line and the two vehicles collided.
