3 victims in fatal Manitowoc County crash identified as Lawrence Gerroll, Lou Gerroll, Joan Gerroll of Two Rivers
Alcohol is believed to be a factor.
SHOTO - Authorities said Thursday morning that alcohol is believed to be a factor in an accident that killed three members of a Two Rivers family on Wednesday.
Names of the victims were released Thursday by Manitowoc County Sheriff Robert Hermann. Killed were Lawrence H. Gerroll, 79, his wife Lou A. Gerroll, 75, of 4411 Mishicot Road, Two Rivers, and their daughter, Joan M. Gerroll, 48, of 1110 33rd St., Two Rivers.
According to a news release from Hermann:
The victims were hit by a van driven by a 43-year-old Manitowoc woman shortly before 4 p.m. Wednesday outside of a home at 1112 Shoto Road, near Shoto. The van was traveling west on Shoto Road, went out of control and left the roadway, entered the north ditch and hit the victims, who were watching a roofing construction project on the home belonging to relatives.
The driver was partially ejected from her 2003 Chevrolet Venture van. Her 6-year-old son was a passenger in the vehicle and was ejected.
Both received serious injuries and were transported to Aurora Medical Center in Two Rivers before being transferred to St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay by the EAGLE III helicopter.
