MONROE - A driver was injured Thursday afternoon after a three-vehicle hit-and-run collision on Wisconsin 81, Town of Monroe.

Harland Fuchs, 79, Monroe, attempted to make a left turn off of Wis. 81, west of County N, when his vehicle was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by Christine Bush, 45, Blanchardville. Bush was then sideswiped by an unknown vehicle that left the scene immediately afterward.

Bush was transported to the Monroe Clinic with non-life-threatening injuries. She was also cited for driving too fast for road conditions.

Dense fog contributed to the collision, said Green County Sheriff's Sergeant Britt Gempeler.

The Green County Sheriff is seeking the driver of the unknown vehicle. The vehicle was reported to be a half-ton black Chevy pickup truck with an extended cab. Anyone with information on the vehicle can contact the Green County Crimestoppers at 1-800-I-C-CRIME.
