CASHTON, Wis. – The Vernon County Sheriff’s Office is reporting a 64-year-old Viroqua man and a 47-year-old Holmen man were involved in a two-vehicle collision near Cashton, in the town of Clinton on May 6.

Sheriff Roy Torgerson says that at about 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday the sheriff’s office received a 9-1-1 call reporting the collision. The report states that Wayne K. Kruizenga of rural Viroqua, was driving north when he looked out his passenger window to waive at a farmer, and when Kruizenga looked back to the road, he saw a vehicle driven by Duane W. Meyer Jr., 47, of Holmen. Meyer was pulling away from a mailbox after completing a postal delivery. Kruizenga braked and steered left, while Meyer accelerated and went right. The Kruizenga vehicle struck the left, rear of the Meyer vehicle.

Kruizenga and Meyer, both wearing seat belts, were seen by first responders but refused medical treatment.
