Three people are recovering after a two vehicle crash Thursday evening in Eagle River.
A 911 caller reported the crash around 5:45 p.m. Thursday, according to the Vilas County Sheriff's Office. Authorities say a pickup truck collided head-on with a sedan near the intersection of Highway 70 and Highway 17.
Two people were flown to Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield for their injuries, while another was taken to Eagle River Memorial Hospital. Their names and current conditions have not been released.
State Highway 70 was closed for several hours to allow crash reconstruction teams to investigate but the road has since reopened.
