TOWN OF BURNETT, Wis. — A 64-year-old woman from Janesville died Friday following a collision between her SUV and a dump truck at approximately 11:30 a.m.
According to the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office, the woman’s SUV was traveling north on Highway I when it entered the intersection with Highway E. The SUV was struck by a dump truck heading west on Highway E, which has the right-of-way at the intersection due to stop signs for traffic on Highway I.

Emergency responders arrived at the scene shortly after the crash, but no further details on lane closures or tows have been provided. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, with authorities yet to confirm whether the SUV came to a complete stop at the stop sign.
