Last March in Milwaukee an off-duty police officer got behind the wheel after drinking. The 44-year-old lost control of his vehicle on Congress Parkway and crashed into the Lincoln Creek.

His blood alcohol level was two times more than the legal limit at the time of his arrest. He was also carrying a loaded weapon. He chose to plead guilty to the misdemeanor and was behind bars for one day.

Today, the Milwaukee police officer has been put on suspension from his line of work for the next 45 days due to his drunk driving conviction. His arrest last year led to an investigation into drunk driving in the police force and there have been new statutes put into place to curb the incidents.

On Sunday night around 5:00 p.m. a two-car accident took place on Wisconsin 213 in Rock County. The outcome of the car accident was serious, with seven people sustaining injuries, three of them severe.

A 39-year-old woman and mother of four was traveling with her whole family on Wisconsin 213 when she was unable to keep control of her vehicle. The car turned sideways and slid into traffic on the other side of the highway, making contact with an oncoming car.

The four children involved were taken to St. Mary’s Hospital in Janesville to be treated for their injuries. Their parents, along with the other driver, received life-threatening injuries and were transported to two separate hospitals. Police are still investigating the crash but believe that bad weather conditions played a role in the accident.

The Costa Concordia cruise ship capsized on Friday, January 13, 2012. There were 4,200  people on board the large cruise liner when the accident occurred. The captain of the ship is responsible for steering the vessel too close to the shore and ultimately striking large rocks.

Six people have been confirmed dead. It was previously thought that there were 16 people still missing, but that number has risen to 29 people, 25 passengers and four crew members. A large number of passengers were injured while trying to evacuate the boat. One crew member was injured with a broken leg and had to be rescued because he could not walk.

The cruise ship crashed right off of the coast of Giglio, Italy. The water it is currently sitting in is part of a dolphin sanctuary, and if any of the 500,000 gallons of fuel begin to leak there could be deadly consequences for the surrounding sea life. The search for survivors is still ongoing.

We are hopeful that the missing people are found safely and we offer our condolences to the victims’ families and friends during this difficult time.
