BREITUNG TOWNSHIP -- Two semi tractor-trailers collided in Breitung Township, Dickinson County. The accident happened on Sunday at 11:30 a.m.

The Iron Mountain State Police Post says a semi tractor-trailer pulling a fuel tanker from Klemm Trucking was traveling north on US-141. While in the intersection, another semi and trailer from Gunville Trucking, traveling eastbound, was unable to stop for the red light.

US-141 and US-2 in Breitung Township had to be shut down because of road blockage.

The Klemm truck was driven by 51-year-old Todd Vincent from Abrams, Wisconsin. The Gunville Truck was driven by 36-year-old Bradley Hawes from Vulcan, Michigan.

Both drivers were treated and released at the Dickenson County Memorial Hospital. The accident is still under investigation.
