Witnesses who live along the road said they heard a loud noise, and then "lots of sirens," but no one witnessed the crash, which happened along the curve near the lake. The group stated they saw at least two bodies, but that report was not confirmed at post time. 

One vehicle, which contained one of the victims of the crash, was positioned off the south lane. Firefighters had to extinguish flames after the accident. 

Air ambulance was called, and at least two ambulance vehicles were on scene. Wright County Deputies, St. Michael Fire Department and Hanover Fire Department were all on the scene.
