NEGAUNEE TOWNSHIP, MI-- A Gwinn woman has been injured in an accident with a road grader in
Negaunee Township.
Troopers from the Negaunee Post say the crash happened Tuesday around 9 a.m. on County Road 480 just outside the Negaunee city limits. They say Kayla Gilstorff, 23, of Gwinn was eastbound when she rear-ended a Marquette County Road Commission grader plowing the road. She said morning sun had blinded her and she didn’t see the vehicle.
Gilstorff and her 3-year-old passenger were taken to U.P. Health System Marquette. She was treated for a broken leg, but the child was not injured.
The driver of the grader, William Vedder, 55, of Ishpeming, was not injured, either.
