Waukon man injured in Highway 9 crash

A Waukon man was injured in a two-car crash Tuesday morning on Highway 9 two miles east of Decorah.

The Iowa State Patrol says 30-year-old Michael Roth was injured when a car driven by 19-year-old William Musus-Alonzo crossed the center line on Highway 9 and struck a glancing blow to Roth's van.  Both vehicles then came to rest in the north ditch.

 Roth was taken to Winneshiek Medical Center by ambulance.  Musus-Alonzo was ticketed with failure to maintain control and for a seat belt violation. 

The Iowa State Patrol was assisted by the Decorah Police Department, Winneshiek County Sheriff's Department and the Winneshiek County Ambulance.
