(KNSI) — One person is dead after a crash in St. Cloud Thursday afternoon.
According to the St. Cloud Police Department, at around 2:30, crews were called to a crash on 20th Avenue Southeast just south of the intersection with Minnesota Boulevard. Investigators say they believe a 25-year-old woman was driving north on 20th Avenue Southeast and was approaching a curve and decline in the road when she lost control of her car and slid head on into an oncoming vehicle. That driver was a 61-year-old woman from St. Cloud. She suffered minor injuries and was treated at St. Cloud Hospital. Her passenger, a 68-year-old St. Cloud man, was seriously injured and taken to St. Cloud Hospital, where he died. The 25-year-old woman is pregnant and was also taken to St. Cloud Hospital with minor injuries.
One witness who stopped to help left before the police arrived. Officers would like to speak with that person.
The crash remains under investigation, but the roads were covered in ice and snow at the time.
