Woman dead after head-on collision with semi
A woman is dead after a head-on crash with a semi in Hubbard County on Wednesday.
An incident report from the Minnesota State Patrol says a Chevrolet Cruze was heading northbound on Highway 64 around 12:20 p.m. when it lost control in the slush, crossed the center lane and hit a Tractor Trailer Semi traveling in the opposite direction head-on.
Authorities say 20-year-old Lillian Marie Laforge, of International Falls, was a passenger in the Chevrolet Cruze and died as a result of the crash.
The State Patrol says the 22-year-old man driving the Cruze sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to Sanford Bemidji Hospital. Both the driver and Laforge were not wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash.
A 49-year-old man driving the semi was uninjured.
A GoFundMe for Laforge has been created to pay for funeral expenses.
