3 officers, another driver injured in Rock County crash

TOWN OF ROCK, Wis. (AP) - The Rock County Sheriff's Office says three officers and another driver were injured in a two-car accident in the Town of Rock.

The sheriff's office says three on-duty police officers with the Town of Beloit were riding in an unmarked vehicle Monday evening when they were hit by a driver who ran a red light. Authorities say a 41-year-old Janesville man was cited for failing to stop at the red light.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (http://bit.ly/1DrorrZ ) reports the officers and the other driver suffered injuries that were not life-threatening.

The eastbound lanes of state Highway 11 were closed for about an hour.
