Semi hits car, injures three
Three Janesville people were injured when their car was hit by a semi-truck at Highway 51 and Beloit Rock Townline Road.
According to the Rock County Sheriff's Department, the accident occurred at 12:26 a.m. today when Leroy J. Dick, 56, of Mountain Lake, Minn., was pulling his semi from Diamond Jim's Gentleman Club onto Highway 51 and struck a 1990 Chevy Cavalier which was northbound on Highway 51.
The driver of the car, Stacie M. Johnson, 16, of Janesville, suffered arm and leg fractures and a laceration to her head. She was transported to Beloit Memorial Hospital, then airlifted to University of Wisconsin-Madison Hospital. As of 5 a.m. she was scheduled for surgery, according to a release.
Johnson's passengers Brian V. Phonesavanh, 18, and Calvin M. Mangruem, 26 both of Janesville were taken to BMH with minor injuries and a third passenger refused treatment.
Dick was cited for failing to yield the right of way.
Sales to minors brings sanctions
Four Beloit establishments were sanctioned Monday night for selling alcohol to minors.
Rollette Oil Co., Park Avenue Grocery, Tobacco Shack and DBA Dick's Tackle & Bait were charged with the offense during a city sting operation.
The Beloit City Council voted not to shorten the suspension period for Rollette Oil and DBA Dick's Tackle & Bait from 10 days to 5.
The stores can either accept the 10-day liquor license suspension or appear at a June 27 hearing.
Tobacco Shack has already agreed to attend the hearing but the city had received no response from Park Avenue Grocery as of Monday night.
The council approved the resolution giving the store notice of intention not to renew its liquor license.
