Sheriff Fitzgerald released an update in the case of a deadly roller over crash in Barron County. Below is the press release issued this afternoon:
As of 2:00 p.m., today, there is no change in the status of the females in the accident from Monday.
The 15 year old at Regions is still listed in critical condition.
The 14 year old female that is in Marshfield is in stable condition with a serious arm injury.
The 16 year old male driver remains in custody in the Eau Claire Detention Facility.
Again our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those affected this incident. Also I want to extend a sincere thank you to the Cameron Fire Department, LMC Ambulance staff, Life Link Helicopters, WI State Patrol, Mayo Ambulance staff and the Deputies and Dispatchers of the Barron County Sheriff’s Department. The effort, care and compassion shown at this scene by these departments doing all they had to do and all they could do was very commendable.
Also I would like to commend the Rice Lake Area School District and staff on their communication with parents and students and the work and care they undertook to help our kids.
