IRON MOUNTAIN -- A single vehicle crash Sunday morning in Iron Mountain on Lehman Avenue resulted in the injury of two people, leaving one person still in critical condition.

A vehicle driven by a 19-year-old male of Iron Mountain left the roadway and struck a tree.

Both the driver and passenger, a 20-year-old male from Quinnesec, had to be extricated from the vehicle and transported to Dickinson County Memorial Hospital for treatment.  The driver was treated for non-life threatening injuries and released.  The passenger was transferred to St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay and is listed in critical condition.
