GENEVA TOWNSHIP — A person was ejected from a vehicle Sunday afternoon during a crash in the town of Geneva.

Officers say they found one of the occupants lying in the roadway and two other occupants in the vehicle.

According to a news release posted Tuesday, Town of Geneva police officers were notified shortly before 2 p.m. Sunday, May 18, of a traffic crash on Highway 12 near the Elkhorn exit.

Officers responded and noticed a newer, dark in color BMW SUV that was involved in a traffic crash at that location.

Fire and EMS arrived on scene. Lifesaving measures were performed. The driver and passengers were taken to local hospitals for their injuries.

The Walworth County Sheriff’s Office Crash Reconstruction Team investigated due to one of the passengers having life-threatening injuries.

It appears that this is the only vehicle involved in this traffic crash, and police say high speeds were one of the contributing factors.

This traffic crash is still under investigation, and charges are pending. Highway 12 was closed for a short period of time, but has now been reopened.
