STOUGHTON, Wis. (AP) -- Five motorcycles in a group driving on Interstate 90 crashed near Stoughton Friday. The Wisconsin State Patrol said five people were injured, one of them critically, in the crash that developed when traffic in front of the cyclists slowed down.
It happened about 10:30 a.m. in the westbound lanes of the interstate. All lanes were blocked for more than an hour, but traffic got moving again shortly before noon.
Jeff Martin is a member of the motorcycling group that was heading to Onalaska for an annual picnic. He said group members are "people who enjoy riding motorcycles and a clean and sober lifestyle."
Some members headed for the hospital to support those injured in the accident.
